I just had a thought: this makes us lookup the device on the bus for each notification. It would be better to simply get the device index from guest instead. We could validate that it matches the correct device, if not - fallback to the current linear scan. We could return the index to guest for the next call. I know this needs guest changes but it's still not too late to fix this for 3.9 guests so that we won't need to worry about compatibility going forward.
