For virtio PCI devices, interrupt should be configured before setting
VIRTIO_CONFIG_STATUS_DRIVER_OK so that QEMU can properly set eventfds
in the host.

For virtio virtual devices, VIRTIO_CONFIG_STATUS_DRIVER_OK should be
set firstly, so that intr_handle is initialized in
virtio_user_start_device().

I'm wondering why can't you let virtio-user follow virtio-pci?

It's because that virtio-user not only counts on virtio_user_start_device()
to allocate intr_handle, it also needs the information in this function to
initialize this struct. For virtio-pci, similar information is from
rte_intr_enable/rte_intr_efd_enable.

Or do you mean we can move calling virtio_user_start_device() ahead? I can
hardly find other place instead of DRIVER_OK.

For example, virtio_user_dev_init()?
