It currently does not work for files that are modified by sysfs itself, because the generic dnotify mechanism only works for file system operations initiated by the user. I have verified that adding calls to dnotify_parent() to sysfs_create and sysfs_hash_and_remove makes it work. I'm not sure about the locking rules there, so I'm not sending a patch but it should be trivial to do for someone more familiar with the sysfs code.
