Isn't the thing that defines what we set the minimum-release
to glibc, not the kernel? That is, the reason we lie to the
guest about the kernel version for some architectures is because
the glibc for those archs insists on a minimum kernel version
which the host may not have. Unless aarch64_be glibc insists
on kernel 4.9.0 there's no need to tell the guest that.
