I'm a little confused about exactly what you're asking for.

The obvious solution is to create a tracker bug, and to make the other
bugs block the tracker bug.  See for example:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Package_Maintainers#Tracker_Bugs

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=F-ExcludeArch-ARM
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=ARMTracker

But ...

... I see there is already a tracker bug associated with this bug.  If
you need to track some other issue different from what PPC64LETracker
is tracking, then I guess create another tracker bug for that issue.
