Public bug reported:

I run OpenStack on AArch64 hardware. Which is not x86-64 compatible for
sure ;D

Nova compute log has info about AMD SEV feature check which is not
present on aarch64 architecture:

2020-04-14 08:49:55.290 7 DEBUG nova.virt.libvirt.host [req-660304ea-428a-4bb5-999a-54ef275c59ff - - - - -] /sys/module/kvm_amd/parameters/sev does not exist _kernel_supports_amd_sev /var/lib/kolla/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/nova/virt/libvirt/host.py:1230
2020-04-14 08:49:55.290 7 INFO nova.virt.libvirt.host [req-660304ea-428a-4bb5-999a-54ef275c59ff - - - - -] kernel doesn't support AMD SEV

I think that it would be good to limit this check to x86-64 architecture
only.
