Why?

And what's with the indentation?

I really don't like adding kobject change events, as they usually never
get listened to, and there are other ways to get this information from
userspace, right?

Why do you need/want this? What is it going to be used for? What tools
will use it? How will they use it?

And why can't the existing notification events for gadget devices work
for you?

thanks,
