Since you've posted the patches, then I would hope you could answer your
own question regarding what happens.

Still in a way this is different than hot/live unplug. Attempting to
start the guest after you've removed a hub that had defined/listed USB
address/attachments would I assume fail because the hub is gone. But
there is a little self doubt because of the automatic hub add algorithm
pointed out in patch 7.

If it does expectedly fail, then someone would have to cold plug a new
device in using the correct address before booting - which is an
expected operation.

In a way no different that someone changing a guest config to use 100
vCPUs or 100G on a host that couldn't support those amounts. When cold
changing things, as long as the value is valid - we're good. When
starting if we don't have the resources, then we're not so good
