Yes, that seems to be the right place - thanks.  A dependency on pci would also
do for us. 

On the other hand, if there are really plans to add a virtio-usb then we should
not disable usb support at all - especially since disabling it does cause some
trouble with libvirt and the current state does not cause problems (we assumed 
that
libvirt will detect usb capability like it does for other parameters, but it 
doesnt).
In other words this patch was mostly cosmetics. So lets just drop this patch, 
go ahead
with Li's patch set and later on we can see if we should do anything regarding 
s390.
