Doc Text Cause:
When trying to hotplug vhostuser interface to a guest, due to a defect in our code libvirt was using wrong set of command on qemu monitor, e.g. we completely ignored that vhostuser needs a chardev too.

Consequence:
The hotplug of vhostuser was failing all the time rendering the feature unusable.

Fix:
The hotplug code for vhostuser devices was reworked.

Result:
The hotplug now succeeds without any problem. Well, except for a multiqueue vhostuser devices which is covered in bug 1386976.

Previously, the libvirt library was using wrong set of commands on the QEMU monitor, when trying to hotplug vhost-user interface to a guest. As a consequence, the hot plug of the vhost-user interface failed. This update corrects the hot-plug code for vhost-user devices. As a result, the hotplug now succeeds as expected.
