Introduce VIRTIO_DEVICE_F_MASK bitmask used for identification
of per-device features. Feature bits VIRTIO_TRANSPORT_F_START
through VIRTIO_TRANSPORT_F_END are reserved for transport
features hence are not counted as per-device features against
the 64bit feature space.

Pls don't add this in uapi, people tend to depend on this and then
things fail when we extend virtio. For example this won't work with >64
feature bits.
Good point. Then keep this macro private to vdpa.c for now?
