Please write a proper commit message, in imperative voice.

"Notify the ... to" sounds really odd to me - "notify userspace about
updated ..." or something?

Also this is missing a lot of commit message to explain what this does
and when it's needed.

that line breaking is awful

a blank line would be nice

That should explain the data type.

blank line again

line breaks are awful

probably should have tracing.
