Now that's a little bit surprising, I had expected that the KVM code is
already compiled by the "cross-arm64-system" job ... but looking at the
output of a corresponding pipeline, it says "KVM support: NO", see e.g.:

https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/jobs/883985039#L298

What's going wrong there? ... ah, well, it's because of the
"--target-list-exclude=aarch64-softmmu" in the template :-(
That was stupid. So instead of adding a new job, could you please simply
replace the aarch64-softmmu there by arm-softmmu?

 Thanks,
