Note that it is by default from driver level that if _F_MQ is not
negotiated. But I think we are talking about something different that
is out of the spec here, what if:
vDPA inherit _F_MQ but mqx_vqp is not provisioned via netlink.
Or is it not allowed? At least some time in the past, mlx5 were
enabled with MQ with 8 queue pairs by default.

Some other cases:
1) MTU: there should be something that the device needs to report if
_F_MTU is negotiated even if it is not provisioned from netlink.
2) device_features: if device_features is not provisioned, we should
still report it via netlink here or do you mean the mgmt can assume it
should be the same as mgmtdev. Anyhow if we don't show device_features
if it is not provisioned, it will complicate the mgmt software.
