Hi All,
We have ARM64 devices used AMD Radeon  Series graphics cards。So,same as x86 we 
really need a full OpenGL Qt support With ARM64 。

I think you're confused here.  We *are* going to be using the Qt GLES stack,
for 64-bit ARM phones / devices.  We have an immediate need for GLES-enabled
Qt because these chips have accelerated GLES drivers, not accelerated GL
drivers.

And this is exactly the same thing that we already have on armhf, not a
"third way".
