The virt stack is still working on aarch64, I believe it doesn't make
sense to try and start the work from oVirt's POV before CentOS 7.3 is
out.

That being said, I believe aarch64 support is a huge feature that'll
take a while to get to a point where we can start submitting bugs. No
news in that regard.
