Prevent the realization of a virtio device that attempts to use the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFICATION_DATA transport feature without disabling ioeventfd.
Due to ioeventfd not being able to carry the extra data associated with this feature, having both enabled is a functional mismatch and therefore Qemu should not continue the device's realization process. Although the device does not yet know if the feature will be successfully negotiated, many devices using this feature wont actually work without this extra data and would fail FEATURES_OK anyway. If ioeventfd is able to work with the extra notification data in the future, this compatibility check can be removed.
