Playground: https://git.kraxel.org/cgit/qemu/log/?h=sirius/microvm-usb
Adds support for usb and pcie (use -machine microvm,usb=on,pcie=on to enable). Reuses the gpex used on arm/aarch64. Seems to work ok on a quick test.
Not fully sure how to deal correctly with ioports. The gpex device has a mmio window for the io address space. Will that approach work on x86 too? Anyway, just not having a ioport range seems to be a valid configuation, so I've just disabled them for now ...
take care, Gerd
