similarly as we do at the API level.

+B<Quirk>: Device unplug is asynchronous in most cases and requires guest
+cooperation. This means that it's up to the discretion of the guest to disallow
+or delay the unplug arbitrarily. As the libvirt API used in this command was
+designed as synchronous it returns success after some timeout even if the device
+was not unplugged yet to allow further interactions with the domain e.g. if the
+guest is unresponsive. Callers which need to make sure that the
+device was unplugged can use libvirt events (see virsh event) to be notified
+when the device is removed. Note that the event may arrive before the command
+returns.
