drbd90-kmod at 9.1.x (and exlusive x86)

[zarganum]

Dear team, two questions on drbd90-kmod:

1. any reason to keep it on 9.1.x?
2. any reason for vetoing the aarch64?

Starting from 9.2.6, DRBD replication now supports kernel-level TLS which might be essential for some environments.
Oracle is maintaining the ktls-utils which is just passed its experimental status.

I tried your spec unlocking the aarch64 (removed ExclusiveArch) and changing the Version to 9.2.11.
My express tests show it builds and works fine with TLS on 5.14.0-427.40.1.el9_4.aarch64 kernel.

1. The 9.2.x branch has been published in the elrepo-testing repository. Regarding the 9.1.x branch, there will be 9.1.23 and that is supposed to be the last version. I plan to move 9.2.x to the main repository once 9.1.x comes to an end.

2. We do not have proper hardware to build and maintain kmod packages for aarch64 at this moment.

@toracat, thanks for swift response

re: aarch64: just in case, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Free Tier provides 3000 always-free ARM CPU hours per month (which is 4-cores), plus 24Gb of RAM. You can split it by cores/gigs in any combinations.

We cannot build the packages that require our signing keys outside our build systems for security reasons.
