I think we should be consistent among all virtio drivers.

E.g without this patch, we stick to 1 if virtio_create_feature() fail.
Do we need to fix that?

And we do something similar at least for the virtio-net and a lot of
other places.

        /* We need at least 2 queue's */
        if (err || max_queue_pairs < VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_VQ_PAIRS_MIN ||
            max_queue_pairs > VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_VQ_PAIRS_MAX ||
            !virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_VQ))
                max_queue_pairs = 1;

Thanks
