 Create a new directory boot for the new kernel and initrd files and copy them into it:

 mkdir boot
 cp /mnt/initrd.img-4.4.0-210-generic-lpae boot
 cp /mnt/vmlinuz-4.4.0-210-generic-lpae boot
 Cleanup:

 sudo umount /mnt
 sudo losetup -d /dev/loop0
 rm ubuntu-raw.img


 Boot the image pointing to the extracted boot files, using below command.
 qemu-system-arm -M virt -m 1024 -kernel ./boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-210-generic-lpae   -initrd ./boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-210-generic-lpae   -append "root=/dev/vda2 rootfstype=ext4" -drive if=none,file=ubuntu-bdg.qcow2,format=qcow2,id=hd -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd -netdev user,id=mynet,hostfwd=tcp::60022-:22 -device virtio-net-device,netdev=mynet -nographic
