Title:
  Cannot boot from EFI image on aarch64

Status in QEMU:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am unable to boot from a EFI disk image on aarch64 qemu.

  I have qemu built and installed from sources on a jetson-nano

  qemu-system-aarch64 -version
  QEMU emulator version 5.2.50 (v5.2.0-3234-gbdee969c0e)
  Copyright (c) 2003-2021 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers

  KVM and and virtio are enabled in host kernel.

  Now I want to boot a ChromiumOS image. I have the image downloaded
  from here:

  https://chromium.arnoldthebat.co.uk/?dir=daily

  The image looks fine:

  rreddy78@jetson-nano:~/Downloads$ fdisk -lu chromiumos_image.bin

  Partition table entries are not in disk order.

  Now I try booting like this:

  qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -m 2048 -smp 2 -cpu host -enable-kvm  \
  -device usb-ehci -device usb-kbd  -device usb-mouse -usb -serial stdio  \
  -device virtio-gpu-pci,virgl=on,xres=1600,yres=900 -display sdl,gl=on \
  -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd \
  -drive if=none,file=chromiumos_image.bin,format=raw,id=hd   \
  -netdev user,id=mynet   \
  -device virtio-net-device,netdev=mynet \
  -bios edk2-aarch64-code.fd -no-reboot

  But I am unable to boot.
