As of v2019.07-rc1, u-boot does fail to boot without any messages on qemu-arm64 when configured with qemu_arm64_defconfig plus CONFIG_RSA/RSA_SOFTWARE_EXP. (Note that RSA_SOFTWARE_EXP also declares itself with DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC.)
By bisecting between v2019.04 and v2019.07, I found that the following commit triggered this regression:
commit 3a7c45f6a772 Author: Lukas Auer <lukas.auer@aisec.fraunhofer.de> Date: Wed Apr 10 14:46:07 2019 +0200 simple-bus: add DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag to simple-bus driver
What's wrong with this?
I just tested it and it boots for me.
$ make qemu_arm64_defconfig $ make menuconfig adding CONFIG_RSA via "Library routines" -> "Security support" -> "Use RSA Library" $ make
$ qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt -cpu cortex-a57 -bios u-boot.bin -nographic
Thank you. I have used locally-built qemu, so I will check the configuration of my build.

I was using Ubuntu 16.04 shipped QEMU packages.

The device tree might be different on your build. With this patch, more drivers are probed during the pre-relocation device model. This increases the size requirements of CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN. qemu-arm64 uses the default value for CONFIG_SYS_MALLOC_F_LEN, which is likely too small. We had similar problems on the i.MX devices, see [1]. Increasing it should fix the issue.
Thanks, Lukas
Ah, it was a known issue. But is there any better, or more flexible, way to fix that issue? It was very difficult for me to find out a clue for root cause.
