If this will affect containers, then I'm starting to worry that I might be affected. I thought I'd be fine as the computers I run virtual machines on are x86-64-v2 and -v3, but another computer that still works fine is -v1. As popular as containers are, who knows when some program I use will switch to being distributed only as a container, and thus become unusable on the -v1 box?
Are you using containers for a different architecture (e.g. running aarch64 containers on an x86_64 host)? AFAIK that's when podman will use QEMU. If not, you would not be affected.
