I haven't fully read all the references, but who imposes the fact that
there's only one fault handler per device? If type1 could register one
handler and the vfio-pci bus driver another for the other level, would
we need this path through vfio-core?

This is looking more and more like it belongs with the IOASID work. I
think Eric has shifted his focus there too. Thanks,
