H A Ddev-hid.c427e3aa1 Sat Nov 17 05:47:18 CST 2012 Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> usb-tablet: Allow connecting to ehci

Our ehci code has is capable of significantly lowering the wakeup rate
for the hcd emulation while the device is idle. It is possible to add
similar code ot the uhci emulation, but that simply is not there atm,
and there is no reason why a (virtual) usb-tablet can not be a USB-2 device.

Making usb-hid devices connect to the emulated ehci controller instead
of the emulated uhci controller on vms which have both lowers the cpuload
for a fully idle vm from 20% to 2-3% (on my laptop).

An alternative implementation to using a property to select the tablet
type, would be simply making it a new device type, ie usb-tablet2, but the
downside of that is that this will require libvirt changes to be available
through libvirt at all, and then management tools changes to become the
default for new vms, where as using a property will automatically get
any pc-1.3 type vms the lower cpuload.
