This is why relying on userspace qemu to do postinstall actions isn't good.  If 
the host kernel doesn't have a new enough kernel it'll break.  If the qemu does 
emulate the exact SOC, it'll break.. etc.. etc.. etc..

So I would expect failures like this on anything that is using QEMU userspace 
emulation (any arch).
