[libvirt] [PATCH 0/5] auto-add USB2 controller set for Q35

For just about every other machinetype, libvirt automatically adds a
USB controller if there is no controller (including "type='none'")
specified in the config. It doesn't do this for the Q35 machinetype,
because Q35 hardware would have a USB2 controller, USB2 controllers
come in sets of multiple devices, and the code that auto-adds the USB
controller was really setup to just add a single controller. Expanding
that to adding a set of related controllers was beyond the amount of
time I had when putting in the initial Q35 support, so I left it "for
later", and then forgot about it until someone reminded me in the hall
at KVM Forum this summer.

I find the practice of auto-adding devices that aren't required for
operation of the virtual machine to be a bit odd, but this does make
the Q35 machinetype more consistent with all the others, and it is
still possible to force no USB controllers by specifying:

   <controller type='usb' model='none'/>

Since the USB controllers on a real Q35 machine are on bus 0 slot
0x1D, there is also a patch here to attempt to use that address for
the first set of USB controllers (and 0x1A for the 2nd set).

Finally, patch 1 is a bugfix for a problem that hadn't been noticed
before, because nobody had tried to connect a USB controller to a
pcie-root-port (which has a single slot that is numbered 0).

Laine Stump (5):
  qemu: don't assume slot 0 is unused/reserved.
  qemu: prefer 00:1D.x and 00:1A.x for USB2 controllers on Q35
  conf: add virDomainDefAddController()
  qemu: define virDomainDevAddUSBController()
  qemu: auto-add a USB2 controller set for Q35 machines
