Ok, the caller (IOMMU driver) sending the page_response if
iommu_report_device_fault() fails does make more sense. Agreed on the
partial cleanup as well, we don't keep track of them here, but I need to
add that to the io-pgfault layer. However some cleanup should probably
happen in here...

... if ret != 0, removing and freeing the pending event seems more
appropriate here than asking our caller to do it
