I agree Ard.
When I don't use ATF I am able to do kexec in QEMU and successfully boot into the new kernel.
Is the following expected?

When I execute kexec ("kexec -l <kernel>", followed by "kexec -e") I hit the following assert in ATF (in the file
arm-trusted-firmware/plat/qemu/qemu_pm.c)

/*******************************************************************************
  * Platform handler called when a power domain is about to be turned
  * off. The target_state encodes the power state that each level should

******************************************************************************/
void qemu_pwr_domain_off(const psci_power_state_t *target_state)
{
     assert(0);
}
