With only the EHCI you might have problems redirecting USB 1.1 devices.
The EHCI+UHCI magic is the right thing to do for USB 2.0 support on x86.

What Andreas and I were suggesting was to split the patch in two parts:
first adding support for USB 2.0/3.0, and only then adding redirection
(perhaps with the possibility to customize how many redirected devices
to support).
