This patch allows the device features to be provisioned through
netlink. A new attribute is introduced to allow the userspace to pass
a 64bit device features during device adding.
This provides several advantages:
- Allow to provision a subset of the features to ease the cross vendor
live migration.
- Better debug-ability for vDPA framework and parent.
