The usb part is probably not that hard.  The devices are not standalone
though.  Tricky is the integration with the rest of qemu, with the input
subsystem (hid devices), chardevs (usb-serial), network (usb-net), sound
(usb-audio), block (usb-storage), ...

ccid and u2f are probably easierst.
mtp should not be hard too.
maybe storage when limiting support to storage daemon.
then it'll be tricky.
maybe the multi-process qemu effort solves (some of) these problems.

take care,
  Gerd
