could we keep iommufd_fault? Internally it will use the new eventq
common struct but external facing names are all still around fault.
the size of changed lines will be much smaller.

Then later for virq it could be iommufd_viommu_virq instead of
iommufd_eventq_virq to explicitly draw its connection to viommu.

this is unlike hwpt where 'paging' or 'nested' is just decorative while
'fault' or 'virq' is noun on its own.

the check on ops can be done in iommufd_eventq_init()
