This one should work with kvm if we change the -cpu line, yes?
Do we have any other boot_linux_console testing for kvm otherwise?

Ack, because for kvm we'd have to know if the host supports 32-bit mode at all. 
  So, no for the thunderx2 that aarch64.ci.qemu.org has, but yes for the 
cortex-a57 in my mustang.

It'd be nice to be able to detect this somehow...

Ack to all the rest as obvious arm embedded/pi stuff.
