Almost. For QOM:

     -device usb-i2c,id=usb-i2c-0
     -device i2c-my-sensor,address=0x48,bus=usb-i2c-0.0

For chardev:

     -device usb-i2c,id=usb-i2c-0
     -chardev socket,path=/tmp/test0,server,nowait,id=chr-foo-0
     -device i2c-my-sensor,address=0x48,bus=usb-i2c-0.0,chardev=chr-foo-0

Repeat for the other buses, replacing -0 with -1 and -2.

It exists already, drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-tiny-usb.c.
