My thought was that since iommu_group is already part of struct device,
it is more efficient to share group level notifier than introducing per
device fault callbacks or notifiers.

So you do need to register per device not just once for the group. In
most cases device with SVM has ACS, it will be 1:1 between device and
group.

When the fault event occurs, IOMMU can identify the offending device
and struct device is embedded in the event data sent to the device
driver or VFIO, so the receiver can filter out unwanted events.
