[CentOS-virt] CEPH rbd support in EL7 libvirt

Thanks Sven and hello centos-virt,

Is rebuilding libvirt with RBD support[1] possible? It seems like another hole EL7 is leaking users to Ubuntu and am yet to find a reason not to, especially as Qemu supports Ceph rbd just fine.

[1] - just a switch in the rpmbuild http://blog.widodh.nl/2015/04/rebuilding-libvirt-under-centos-7-1-with-rbd-storage-pool-support/
