binutils-gdb.git/gdb/rs6000-tdep.c has:

static const char *
rs6000_register_name (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, int regno)
{
  ppc_gdbarch_tdep *tdep = (ppc_gdbarch_tdep *) gdbarch_tdep (gdbarch);

  /* The upper half "registers" have names in the XML description,
     but we present only the low GPRs and the full 64-bit registers
     to the user.  */
  if (tdep->ppc_ev0_upper_regnum >= 0
      && tdep->ppc_ev0_upper_regnum <= regno
      && regno < tdep->ppc_ev0_upper_regnum + ppc_num_gprs)
    return "";

  /* Hide the upper halves of the vs0~vs31 registers.  */
  if (tdep->ppc_vsr0_regnum >= 0
      && tdep->ppc_vsr0_upper_regnum <= regno
      && regno < tdep->ppc_vsr0_upper_regnum + ppc_num_gprs)
    return "";

(s390 looks similar for V0-V15 lower).

I guess it is because the upper half is not a real register but an
extension of an existing FP register to make a vector register. I
just don't know how that should be resolved with QEMU.

Should we put an exception in the test case for these? Or is there
something we should be doing differently with the XML regs?

i386 gdb does similar:

static const char *
i386_register_name (struct gdbarch *gdbarch, int regnum)
{
  /* Hide the upper YMM registers.  */
  if (i386_ymmh_regnum_p (gdbarch, regnum))
    return "";

  /* Hide the upper YMM16-31 registers.  */
  if (i386_ymmh_avx512_regnum_p (gdbarch, regnum))
    return "";

  /* Hide the upper ZMM registers.  */
  if (i386_zmmh_regnum_p (gdbarch, regnum))
    return "";

  return tdesc_register_name (gdbarch, regnum);
}

So, I'm not sure how they don't fail this test. Does QEMU just
not have YMM/ZMM in XML regmap?

Thanks,
Nick
