I compared the Qemu USB controller with the Bochs one using Ralph Brown's
pcifg utility and found two different things.
- Bochs USB appears at function 2 of the PIIX3
- Bochs USB uses PIRQ line INTD
You can find both things in the PIIX3 documentation.
I tried the Qemu USB implementation with Win98 here. The hubs are detected
correctly, but it makes Win98 hang on shutdown.

I guess the host OS doesn't like modifing data on a mounted devices. It might
be okay for input-only devices. I cannot try it here, since it requires root
permissions.
