The tag backend is not supported for user/direct/hostdev network when you
try to define them inside the domain XML. So, other ways to include devices
cannot be permitted too. But the attach-device command is wrongly adding
unsupported features. This commit fixes this bug.
After the patch:
virsh # attach-device rhel7.4 backend.xml
error: Failed to attach device from backend.xml
error: unsupported configuration: Custom tap device path is not supported for: user
