struct vfio_pci_core_device contains eleven boolean flags. Boolean flags clearly indicate their usage but space usage starts to be a concern when there are many. An upcoming change adds another boolean flag to struct vfio_pci_core_device, thereby increasing the concern that the boolean flags are consuming unnecessary space. Transition the boolean flags to use bitfields. On a system that uses one byte per boolean this reduces the space consumed by existing flags from 11 bytes to 2 bytes with room for a few more flags without increasing the structure's size.
