Hm, I wonder how this plays with transports that want to make the
virtio-1 vs. legacy decision post-init? For virtio-ccw, I basically
only want to offer VERSION_1 if the driver negotiated revision >= 1.
I'd need to check for !scsi as well before I can add this feature bit
then? Have the init function set a blocker for VERSION_1 so that the
driver may only negotiate revision 0?
