I will expand on what Rich has said. The OpenXT project currently 
contains the PV USB stack that originated in the Citrix XenClient 
Enterprise project and was open sourced in the over all open source 
effort making the former Citrix XenClient XT project into OpenXT.
The original pieces were the Xen usbback driver component and the 
Windows front end driver:
https://github.com/OpenXT/xenclient-oe/blob/master/recipes-kernel/linux/3.18/patches/usbback-base.patch

https://github.com/OpenXT/xc-vusb

I then wrote a Linux front end for this:

https://github.com/OpenXT/pv-linux-drivers/tree/master/xc-vusb

And a colleague of ours wrote a new daemon to control USB policy, 
assignment and xenbus device management:
