Yes, that kernel is part of the new c7-alt repo on git.centos.org that
Red Hat has released (it contains modified RHEL source packages for
ppc64/ppc64le and aarch64.

https://git.centos.org/feed/rpms?h=refs/heads/c7-alt&l=150

That package (as well as the others in the c7-alt) have either already
been released or are being released today.
