Applying that does not seem to help, but you might want to get vexpress
running anyways for some multiplatform sanity checks.

I just built and installed qemu-linaro from their git, then ran the
command above. Looks like stock qemu does not work for vexpress for some
reason. You can probably use a dummy initrd and rootfs to debug this
though :)
