The modern_version_bases dict tells Kimchi from whichi OS version it can 
use virtio bus.
You can see more details in src/kimchi/osinfo.py:116

if distro in modern_version_bases[arch]:
         if LooseVersion(version) >= LooseVersion(
modern_version_bases[arch][distro]):
params.update(template_specs[arch]['modern'])
else:
             params.update(template_specs[arch]['old'])

So your patch should not change the opensuse version for x86

And for power, you need to add the lowest version that supports virtio bus.
I know Ubuntu 14.04 is the first Ubuntu version supported for Power so 
it is correct
But is it true for opensuse  13.1 and sles 12?
