There are some status reads and updates that need to happen before the protocol features are negotiated. Therefore, assuming the backend does support this feature can lead to failures.
On server mode, do not assume the backend supports VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_STATUS. Activate it back on reconnection and cleare it on disconnection.
