Hi Michael,
Its interesting, but I am not convinced its necessary. We created the
group/item layout because iosignalfds are unique in that they are
probably the only IO device that wants to do some kind of address
aliasing. With what you are proposing here, you are adding aliasing
support to the general infrastructure which I am not (yet) convinced is
necessary. If there isn't a use case for other devices to have
aliasing, I would think the logic is best contained in iosignalfd. Do
you have something in mind?

Kind Regards,
-Greg
