This function is used by virtio_vdpa as well (drivers/virtio/virtio_vdpa.c:virtio_vdpa_finalize_features).
A vDPA device can offer this feature and it will be accepted, even though VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA is not a thing for the vDPA transport at the moment.

I don't know if this is bad, since offering VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA is meaningless for a vDPA device at the moment.

I submitted a patch adding support for vDPA transport.
