[libvirt] Re: [PATCH 02/12] Extend the virDomainDeviceAddress struture to allow USB addresses

Introduce a new structure
struct _virDomainDeviceUSBAddress {
unsigned int bus;
unsigned int dev;
};
and plug that into virDomainDeviceAddress. Convert the
host device USB config to use this new address struct.
XML looks like
<address type='usb' bus='007' dev='003'/>
I think I will remove this particular patch. After investigating a
little more, it appears that 'dev' is not something you can ever
assign from the host. The guest OS assigns 'dev' on the fly when
it activates the USB device. We might be able to assign 'bus' from
the host, but QEMU doesn't currently allow it. We can always re-add
this patch later when needed.
