We can, but those are static attributes that is not expected to be
changed by the driver.

Introduce callbacks for those static stuffs does not give us any advantage.

For group id and notification area, since we don't have a abstract of
vdpa_virtqueue. The only choice is to introduce callbacks for them.

Maybe it's time to introduce vdpa_virtqueue.

Thanks
