I don't think it is worth getting too specific here, the fact it only
has dma_unmap devices is a bit of a shortcut to save some work.

The locking is more complicated on this since we still have check
every device in the group if it is opened or not while launching the
callback and prevent it from opening/closing while the callback is
running.
Since I plan to delete the dirty tracking which will drop the
emulated_iommu_groups too I would leave it like this.
