Subject: [PATCH 1/6] vhost: prevent features to be changed while device is
 running

As section 2.2 of the Virtio spec states about features
negotiation:
"During device initialization, the driver reads this and tells
the device the subset that it accepts. The only way to
renegotiate is to reset the device."

This patch implements a check to prevent illegal features change
while the device is running.

One exception is the VHOST_F_LOG_ALL feature bit, which is enabled
when live-migration is initiated. But this feature is not negotiated
with the Virtio driver, but directly with the Vhost master.
