I've now done this rebasing, fixed a few other minor issues and
put the resulting patches into qemu-linaro as "experimental work
in progress":

http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=qemu/qemu-linaro.git;a=summary

Note that I've defaulted KVM to off for ARM hosts (for the benefit
of other users of qemu-linaro who don't care about KVM yet), so run
configure with "--enable-kvm".

A note about the branches here: the 'rebasing' branch is the patch
stack, and (as the name suggests) it rebases on qemu upstream
fairly frequently. 'master' is a never-rebases branch which always
has identical contents to the head of 'rebasing' (generated by
stg publish). Pick whichever branch suits your use case best.

Instructions on how to cross-compile it are here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/PeterMaydell/A15OnFastModels
(if you're moving from Christoffer's qemu tree these are worth
checking, because QEMU now requires glib/gthread so a cross
compile setup that could compile Christoffer's tree won't
necessarily build this one.)
