Would be nice if you included you Build Configuration that bitbake
prints at beginning of build step

OK so it seems you have meta-linaro in the layer mix. Besides
toolchain it provided many other recipes, qemu is one of them
and I am not sure if you are interested to use qemu also from
meta-linaro, if you are then some of Linaro developers manitnaining
meta-linaro might know better. It could just be an oversight. But you
could pin to use OE-Core qemu

so in your distro.conf or local.conf add

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_qemu-native = "qemu-native"
PREFERRED_VERSION_qemu = "${QEMUVER}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_qemu-native = "${QEMUVER}"
PREFERRED_VERSION_nativesdk-qemu = "${QEMUVER}"

where QEMUVER = "1.5.0" if you are on dora and "1.7.0" if you are on
master branch of OE-Core layer
