I think QEMU's --device vhost-user-blk-pci will work with this patch
series because QEMU passes the struct virtio_blk_config from the
vhost-user-blk server to the guest. If a new vhost-user-blk server
supports num_poll_queues then the guest will see the config field.
However, the new feature bit that was discussed in another sub-thread
needs to be added to hw/block/vhost-user-blk.c:user_feature_bits[] and
QEMU needs to be recompiled.
