This patch causes aarch64 to use virtio-pci instead of virtio-mmio. Virtio-pci is considerably faster than virtio-mmio, it's more like how other architectures work, and it supports hotplugging (although it's not likely we'd use the latter feature). I'm not necessarily suggesting that we apply this. Laine (CC'd) has some further patches to libvirt lined up which AIUI would

This is only lightly tested. In particularly I only tested that the non-secure-boot path still works. I didn't test it on RHEL 7.3 yet because I haven't got enough free disk space for these giant source *.ova files :-( Will try to give that a go later. Rich.

First version was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-August/thread.html#00100 This is semantically the same as the first version. However I've split the patch up into two parts. In the first part, I factor out the UEFI paths so now they are created by the generator and written in the library and v2v/ directory directly, instead of the complex business of having a C
