Some legacy guests just assume features are 0 after reset.
We detect that config space is accessed before features are
set and set features to 0 automatically.
Note: some legacy guests might not even access config space, if this is
reported in the field we might need to catch a kick to handle these.
I wonder whether it's easier to just support modern device?

Thanks
Well hardware vendors are I think interested in supporting legacy
guests. Limiting vdpa to modern only would make it uncompetitive.


My understanding is that, IOMMU_PLATFORM is mandatory for hardware vDPA to work. So it can only work for modern device ...

Thanks
