Sorry, this one has fallen through the cracks. For
the preceding ones: I do not have a strong opinion. I do
share Michael's and Connie's assessment regarding a possible
clash with CCW.

Let me just note that the feature ain't called, "F_CONFIG_DATA" (i.e.
with full name VIRTIO_F_CONFIG_DATA) but rather "F_NOTIF_CONFIG_DATA"
(i.e. with full name VIRTIO_F_NOTIF_CONFIG_DATA).

In that sense vq_config_data is not good in my opinion, because
it misses "notif" which is present in both "F_NOTIF_CONFIG_DATA"
and "queue_notify_data".

I'm about tho have a look how this panned out in v13. I propose
let us continue the discussion there.
