AFAIK nobody is working on either upstreaming the PV USB drivers or on
the toolstack side of things.

George Dunlap (CCd) was planning to take another look at the USB support
in libxl, but I think that was for passthrough of USB devices to the
emulated USB controller of an HVM guest (but perhaps I am
misremembering?).

Assuming George isn't working on it then patches are always welcome (and
if George is then you guys can argue among yourselves about who gets to
do it ;-))
