I'm not able to reproduce your problem. Could you please double check
your QEMU installation? (looks like efi-pcnet.rom is missing for some
reason)

I've just tried the same command on the fresh build of the latest QEMU:
$ install/bin/qemu-system-mips64 -M malta -m 256 -k /dev/null -kernel
images/vmlinux-3.2.0-4-5kc-malta -nographic -monitor null
