there has to be some policy in place to redirect USB devices to each
QEMU instance, maybe at startup it could reserve a node in the USB
device tree (an USB controller, or maybe a port in a hub). when
invoked by udev, some script would consult those reservations and pick
the appropriate QEMU
yep, it's not trivial, but seems doable with scripts (and a small DB,
or maybe a clever filesystem arrangement).
