Boots for me, though I have to specify
	-append "rdinit=/sbin/init console=ttyAMA0,115200"
or, when using a root file system,
	-drive file=core-image-minimal-qemuarm.ext3,format=raw,if=sd \
	-append "root=/dev/mmcblk0 rootwait rw console=ttyAMA0,115200"

I do get the warning about the wrong CPU id, but looks like that is as expected.

I tried with qemu 2.5, 1.6, and 2.7, and the mainline kernel as well as v4.7.
