I'm not sure where you got the idea that libvirt's <hostdev> element had
an attribute called "xvga", but it doesn't.

If your GPU needs to have QEMU's xvga setting turned on, this posting
from ALex's blog explains how to do it using libvirt's QEMU commandline
passthrough:

I would recommend reading all the other postings in his blog as well, as
they are very informative.
