VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK is too narrow a use-case to commit to it
as a kernel/userspace ABI: what if one wants to start rings in some
other specific order?
As was discussed on list, a better promise is not to access ring
until the 1st kick. vdpa can then do a kick when it wants
the device to start accessing rings.
