At this point, given it's likely "completely missing
device emulation for the power control" and we're about
five days away from hardfreeze for 2.6, I would expect
that we won't fix this for QEMU 2.6.

When this gets fixed later is uncertain. You could help
by testing whether the out-of-tree raspi branch works for
you, as Andrew suggested.
