This patch seems to be mixing two things: 1) Disabling USB host support. If System z mainframes don't have USB support, it doesn't make much sense to enable USB host passthrough. 2) Disabling USB support for guest machines. Wasn't there a recent virtio-usb RFC? In that case it would very well be possible to connect virtual USB devices (including smartcard) to the virtio s390 machine.
