That requires would require a rephrase.

While providing -nodefaults, ppc64 should be specifying the usb
controller explicitly in place of using the legacy
controller(-usb). Qemu spapr initialization code when sees "-usb" adds a
USB Keyboard and USB Mouse by default. And libvirt too has added a USB
keyboard and USB mouse.

A recent fix in the in qemu VGA code uncoverd this problem, which
resulted in addition of extra keyboard and mouse to the qemu machine.
