I remade (based on George Dunlap advices and compatible with future usb 
hot-plug patches) and posted some times ago usbversion and usbredirection 
patches:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-10/msg00580.html
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-10/msg00973.html

Unfortunatly no reply for one month :(

They are tested and working also with new usb passtghrough (from dom0) with 
hot-plug patches of George Dunlap.

About new usb passthrough with hotplug patches I did only a refresh and one fix 
but they are incomplete about some features, probably they will be ready only 
for xen 4.5.
Latest post about it:
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-11/msg00451.html

usbversion and usbredirection seem already complete and fully working, probably 
they can be inserted into Xen 4.4 after revision of the maintainers.


Thanks for any reply.
