we have a few problems with hotplug at the moment:
qemu may add usb hubs when adding usb devices but fails to remove them
when removing the usb device (this is a qemu bug)
also when starting a guest with a usb device we add ehci and uchi
controllers, which we cannot hot unplug
with those devices, it is impossible to live migrate the guest
to another host, meaning even if you remove all usb devices,
the migrate fails
so we deactivate usb hotplugging for now
