Configure virtual machine to passtrought /dev/parport0

Expect: /dev/parport0 available in guest

Happened: parport is unavailable in guest

Reason: wrong qemu launch string

have:
/usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc-1.0 -cpu qemu32 -enable-kvm -m 128 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 \
... skipped ...
-chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0 -device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0
... skipped ...

shoud be:
/usr/bin/kvm -S -M pc-1.0 -cpu qemu32 -enable-kvm -m 128 -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1 \
... skipped ...
-chardev parport,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0 -device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0
... skipped ...
