Since Qemu 5.1, this defconfig doesn't boot due to the to small SD card image size (60MB).
qemu-system-arm: sd_init failed: Invalid SD card size: 60 MiB
SD card size has to be a power of 2, e.g. 64 MiB.
You can resize disk images with 'qemu-img resize <imagefile> <new-size>'
(note that this will lose data if you make the image smaller than it currently is).
qemu-system-arm: sd_init failed
>From [1]:
"While the possibility to use small SD card images has been seen as
a feature, it became a bug with CVE-2020-13253, where the guest is
able to do OOB read/write accesses past the image size end."
The qemu_arm_vexpress_tz_defconfig doesn't trigger such issue since
it doesn't use the same filesystem support (i.e doesn't use
-drive file=output/images/rootfs.ext2,if=sd,format=raw).
