    Makes sense .. let me then work on centos-release-kvm-power, that would
    Requires: centos-release-virt-common

    BTW, just looking at existing rpm pkgs for this, and I see
    centos-release-kvm but its it still needed anymore ? it seems it's only
    carrying some specific "{rust-}vhost*" pkgs (for ovirt ?)



They've been prepared in collaboration with Automotive SIG.
I think you can reuse it for shipping qemu-kvm for power.

It ships packages that can be used directly with qemu-kvm, not specific to oVirt.

FWIW, as I'm also member of the Extras SIG (through Infra SIG membership myself), I just tagged to -release centos-release-kvm-power, and just announced it.
