Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] vdpa: add VHOST_BACKEND_F_ENABLE_AFTER_DRIVER_OK flag

This feature flag allows the driver enabling virtqueues both before and
after DRIVER_OK.

This is needed for software assisted live migration, so userland can
restore the device status in devices with control virtqueue before the
dataplane is enabled.
