Hi Paul, qemu-kvm-ev is available in http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-testing/x86_64/os/Packages and in
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-master-snapshot/rpm/el7/x86_64/

I'm going to update it for 3.5.z too following
Bug 1215744 - Rebuild qemu-img-ev and qemu-kvm-ev to include fix for "Bug 1203543 - bdrv_make_zero() passes a too large nb_sectors value to
bdrv_write_zeroes()" as soon as it will be available.

For libvirt, vdsm guys solved without requiring a newer version so we're not going to build a newer version for now.
