Subject: [PATCH 11/23] userfaultfd: Rename uffd_api.bits into .features

From: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@...allels.com>

This is (seem to be) the minimal thing that is required to unblock
standard uffd usage from the non-cooperative one. Now more bits can
be added to the features field indicating e.g. UFFD_FEATURE_FORK and
others needed for the latter use-case.
