VDPA_ATTR_DEV_SUPPORTED_FEATURES is supposed to be VDPA_ATTR_MGMTDEV_SUPPORTED_FEATURES
And device specific features is supposed to be named as,
VDPA_ATTR_DEV_SUPPORTED_FEATURES.

But it was not done this way in commit cd2629f6df1ca.
This leads to the finding good name problem now.

Given that this new attribute is going to show same or subset of the features of the management device supported features, it is fine to reuse with exception with explicit comment in the UAPI header file.
