Also, let's not repeat the vhost net mistakes, let's lock everything to the order required by the virtio spec, checking status bits at each step. E.g.: set backend features set features detect and program vqs enable vqs enable driver
and check status at each step to force the correct order. e.g. don't allow enabling vqs after driver ok, etc
