With the added checks on the parameter for -usbdevice, the following
warning got introduced:

hw/usb-bus.c: In function ‘usbdevice_create’:
hw/usb-bus.c:278: error: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type

It is okay to drop the qualifier (const) from the empty string here.

Ah, just noticed this warning is only in Jans git... For those who
were wondering :)

Cheers,
Niels
