The intent of the features bitmp is to only update the configuration in
hardware for the feautures that require it. On reset, this is all
features, but for a user configuration change this is just the
difference from what was previously set.

However, I don't think the difference part is currently working
correctly; the bitmap always has all the bits set and so any update
configures everything. I'll look into this.
