Figuring out how a userspace/kernelspace interface works should not
rely on having to read kernelspace code. Unfortunately, in the case
of hotplug / uevents, there is no such documentation. Thus, what
kernelspace / userspace interactions actually are and what they
should be is unclear, leading to confusion over corner cases, such as
this one.
