Yes.

Right.

Using vhost_has_feature() is kind of tricky since it's used for virtio 
feature negotiation.

We probably need to use backend_features instead.

I think we should probably do more:

1) forbid the feature to be set when mem table / IOTLB has at least one 
mapping
2) forbid the mem table / IOTLB updating after the feature is set

Thanks
