In driver probe phase, we obtain device information; and then virtio driver will initialize device and stores info, like negotiated features, in vhost_user layer; finally, vhost_user gets DRIVER_OK notification from virtio driver, and then sync with backend device.
Previously, DRIVER_OK could be sent twice: 1. when ether layer invokes eth_device_init to initialize device; 2. when user configures it with different configuration from that of previous. Since we can only depend on DRIVER_OK notification to sync with backend device, we postpone it to virtio_dev_start when everything is settled.
