vhost-net: allow configuring extended features
Use the extended feature type for 'acked_features' and implement two new ioctls operation allowing the user-space to set/query an unbounded amount of features. The actual number of processed features is limited by VIRTIO_FEATURES_MAX and attempts to set features above such limit fail with EOPNOTSUPP. Note that: the legacy ioctls implicitly truncate the negotiated features to the lower 64 bits range and the 'acked_backend_features' field don't need conversion, as the only negotiated feature there is in the low 64 bit range. Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
