A simple answer would be yes, but the long answer is that I am not sure
if there's any for the moment - there's no  default value for mtu, mac,
and max_vqp that can be inherited from the parent (max_vqp by default
being 1 is spec defined, not something inherited from the parent). And
the device_features if inherited is displayed at 'vdpa dev config show'
output. Can you remind me of a good example for inherited value that we
may want to show here?
