Currently, -device xxx still can't work well for ppc64 platform.
It's better use legacy USB option with default for ppc64.
This patch is to legacy USB option with default for ppc64.

For what it is worth: if QEMU's support for -device <usbcontroller> is
broken on PPC, it seems perfectly OK to add special handling.
The patch you have posted will serve the purpose and I do support it.
Another approach would be to clear the problematic capabilities in
qemu_capabilities.c, e.g. in virQEMUCapsInitQMP, which might be
conceptually cleaner. Maybe a libvirt committer wants to comment...
