Hi!

Nowadays qemu-kvm in CentOS is actually based on QEMU instead of the foregone
qemu-kvm fork, since qemu-kvm got merged back to QEMU years ago. The srpm is
not hard to find if you tried to google "how to download source rpm in centos
7":

https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/RebuildSRPM

http://vault.centos.org/7.0.1406/os/Source/SPackages/qemu-kvm-1.5.3-60.el7.src.rpm

[BTW, qemu-stable and qemu-trivial are for particular patch contribution, not
for general discussion. Please just send to qemu-devel and/or qemu-discussion
next time.]
