feature_set is part of the feature control (abstraction over the various
"features" bits in Apple ASIC). You can disable all the mac-io/feature
stuffs in MESH on non-pmac machines.
We use them after spying macos to what looks like enabling the line drivers.
note_scsi_host is used by the pmac "guess boot device" mecanism, you can
forget it too.
