centos5 kernel-xen does NOT have xen pvusb drivers included,
so pvusb won't work, unless you grab/build the drivers from http://xenbits.xen.org/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
Xen HVM guest qemu-dm USB passthru (usb 1.1) should be available,
but that is only for Xen HVM VMs, not for PV domUs.
If using pvops 2.6.32 dom0 kernel, then pvusb drivers
are available here: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-01/msg00354.html
