This line's way too long.

The API seems too complex, and you still had to open-code ECN logic.
Just open-code most of it. You can use a helper macro to output a
friendly message without code duplication.
For example like the below (completely untested)?


I would also like to split things: dependencies on
VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_VQ might go into this kernel,
since they help fix BUG.

Others should wait since they don't fix any crashes, and there's a small
chance of a regression for some hypervisor in the field.


-->

virtio-net: friendlier handling of misconfigured hypervisors

We currently trigger BUG when VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_VQ
is not set but one of features depending on it is.
That's not a friendly way to report errors to
hypervisors.
Let's check, and fail probe instead.
