I no need other parts of kernel to query rproc features.
In my V1 patch to support i.MX8QM/QXP self recovery, I introduced a new bool
in "struct rproc", but it is not preferred. So I think to use a enum flag, after
looking into struct rproc, I see the possibility to use one API rproc_has_feature
to simplify code, such as move has_iommu into 
rproc_has_feature(rproc, RPROC_FEAT_IOMMU), and in future, when need to
add new flag/capability of rproc, we could reuse the rproc_has_feature API.

I'll move this to patch 2/2

sure

Just wanna to limit max features to one int, I may mis use this,
will fix in new version.
