Yeah, there's no public API. So far we recommended mgmt apps to track
the usage themselves, however I don't see why we shouldn't have a new
API, say:

int virNodeDeviceGetUsed(virNodeDevicePtr dev, char **drvname, char
**domname);

Can you please open a gitlab issue for this? Or, are you willing to
submit patches?
