From: Halil Pasic <pa...@linux.ibm.com>

Not having VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED in feature_bits[] is a problem when the
vhost-vsock device does not offer the feature bit VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED
but the in QEMU device is configured to try to use the packed layout
(the virtio property "packed" is on).

As of today, the  Linux kernel vhost-vsock device does not support the
packed queue layout (as vhost does not support packed), and does not
offer VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED. Thus when for example a vhost-vsock-ccw is
used with packed=on, VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED ends up being negotiated,
despite the fact that the device does not actually support it, and
one gets to keep the pieces.
