I'm wondering if this is the only machine type not supporting usb...
if not, how are others handling it?

The usb parsing code in machine.c does not care if usb is even
configured (CONFIG_USB). There's other stuff in there like
igd-passthru, which seems to be x86 specific; probably historical
reasons?
