netback: disable features not supported by netfront

Netback works by first setting all possible features, and then
resetting some after connection, if the front-end didn't negotiate
them. Except that in the old 2.6.18 tree the "resetting" part was
missing. In the pvops tree, this should work correctly through the
fix_features mechanism.
