I don't see the point of doing this. The --vdev parameter implicitly
defines the bus by its name (--vdev aka virtual device).
Why don't you add a commandline "--dev" parameter that supports a
"bus=" devarg? You would need to clarify what that means for other
busses than the virtual one. Is the bus switched into whitelist mode
by that?
