For other devices, we have

<interface type='vhostuser'>
<interface><driver name='vhost'/>
<hostdev type='scsi_host'><source protocol='vhost'>

Which is an attempt to make this more generic. IMO using vhostuser='yes'
and is the simplest match to qemu terminology but maybe other people
have stronger opinions.

I assume you followed the example of 'primary', but this should be a
virTristateBool. Follow 'accel3d' parsing/formatting as an example
