Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] vduse: Temporarily disable control queue features

Virtio-net driver control queue implementation is not safe
when used with VDUSE. If the VDUSE application does not
reply to control queue messages, it currently ends up
hanging the kernel thread sending this command.

Some work is on-going to make the control queue
implementation robust with VDUSE. Until it is completed,
let's disable control virtqueue and features that depend on
it.
