I would prefer `uint' here, but I don't see generic unsigned type (may
be, I am mistaken). I could use uint8 here, though.

Bit names are not known here, they are obtained from virtio device
implementations.

Consider it as way to tell caller about names of supported features.

These are different feature names. First names are common and predefined
for all devices. Second names are device-specific.
