Currently, libvirt is using legacy USB controller as default. There
are problems with VGA which can't work correctly with USB Keyboard and
USB Mouse.
While providing -nodefaults, ppc64 should be specifying the usb
controller explicitly in place of using the legacy
controller(-usb). Qemu spapr initialization code when sees "-usb" adds a
USB Keyboard and USB Mouse by default. And libvirt has added a USB
keyboard and USB mouse.
A recent fix in the in qemu VGA code uncoverd this problem, which
resulted in addition of extra keyboard and mouse to the qemu machine.
This patch is to set pci-ohci as USB default controller.

On my machine, a guest fails to boot if it has a sound card, but not
graphical device/display is configured, because pulseaudio fails to
initialize since it can't access $HOME.
A workaround is removing the audio device, however on ARM boards there
isn't any option to do that, so -nographic always fails.
Set QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none if no <graphics> are configured. Unfortunately
this has massive test suite fallout.
Add a qemu.conf parameter nographics_allow_host_audio, that if enabled
will pass through QEMU_AUDIO_DRV from sysconfig (similar to
vnc_allow_host_audio)
Currently, -device xxx still doesn't work well for ppc64 platform.
It's better use legacy USB option with default for ppc64.
