Do you think this is a regression?  I doubt so, because even before
pushing the update to 5.1.0, the test suite of qemu (not qemu-minimal)
was failing on master.

The error in the log you posted appear to be:

ERROR:tests/qtest/arm-cpu-features.c:508:test_query_cpu_model_expansion_kvm: assertion failed: (resp_has_props(_resp))
ERROR arm-cpu-features - Bail out! ERROR:tests/qtest/arm-cpu-features.c:508:test_query_cpu_model_expansion_kvm: assertion failed: (resp_has_props(_resp))

You could try commenting out the "check-qtest-aarch64-y +=
arm-cpu-features" line in tests/qtest/Makefile.include, as was done for
bios-tables-test in commit afeed71ae447ea18f7bc1b0b331e73e995308251.
