I already expressed my view on this (latest QEMU should be
able to use at least f31 - which was tested - and eventually
f33 - which is coverage extension). I'm not going to vouch
this change. If other maintainers are happy with it, I don't
mind this gets merged.

BTW I don't see why this is urgent for 5.2.
