If I specify -M vexpress-a9, I can sort of boot the kernel. However no

This is because your initramfs does not contain the mmci driver. There is a workaround installed in the current set of images being generated right now. I just booted and tested this one:

You might find the 'boot-vexpress' and 'boot-vexpress+x' scripts, not to mention the prebuilt initramfs in this archive to be helpful:
