As I recall from a quick scan of the commits (and I am
not going to claim I looked closely), some of the later
commits are not build time choices/checks, but now
just presume x86_64-v2.  Reverting the removals
(and maintaining) those commits is likely not a viable
option for Fedora packaging.

While I would prefer that upstream had added in run
time checks (and make their best choices) rather than
build time/code checks, I do understand that upstreams
are not likely to resource that for use cases that are
considered uncommon (x86_64-v1 systems running
qemu).
