Hi Louis,
I doubt you (or anyone) will still fix it for Xenial.
Feel free to update if that isn't true.

Title:
  smbios parameter settings not visible in guest

Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in qemu source package in Xenial:
  Won't Fix
Status in qemu source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  qemu-system-aarch64 supports -smbios parameters to export values into the DMI tables.
  These values are viewable via /sys/class/dmi/id/* or via dmidecode (V3 tables).

  Passing in custom values for things like -smbios
  type=1,manufacturer="Foobar" should result in that value being
  viewable in-guest via dmidecode or /sys/class/dmi/id/*

  Testing with a Xenial qemu-system-arm and Xenial cloud-image shows
  that these smbios parameters aren't being modified.
