Why is the kset needed? We can determine that from the kobject.
How about changing this to: int send_kevent(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr); which just tells userspace that a specific attribute needs to be read, as something "important" has changed.
Will passing the attribute name be able to successfully handle the "enum kevent" and "signal" combinations?
