OK... So you think this is not vdpa common code but rather individual 
vendor driver should deal with? Seems fine at the first glance, but with 
some thoughts this would complicate userspace code quite a lot to tell 
apart different cases - say if the VDPA_ATTR_DEV_NEGOTIATED_FEATURES 
attr is missing it would not be possible to display the queue type. On 
the other hand, the queue type itself shouldn't be vendor specific thing 
- only the vendor stats are, right?

Furthermore, without FEATURES_OK the stats returned for a specific queue 
might not be stable/reliable/reasonable at all, not sure how the tool 
can infer such complex state (e.g. negotiation is in progress) if 
somehow the vendor driver doesn't provide the corresponding attribute? 
Should vendor driver expect to fail with explicit message to indicate 
the reason, or it'd be fine to just display zero stats there? Looking at 
mlx5_vdpa implementation it seems to be the former case, but in case of 
device being negotiating, depending on which queue, the vstat query 
might end up with a confusing message of, either

"virtqueue index is not valid"

or,

"failed to query hardware"

but none is helpful for user to indicate what's going on... I wonder if 
mandating presence of FEATURES_OK would simplify userspace tool's 
implementation in this case?
