This seems sub-optimal. My understanding is that this information is of
importance to the user space process that takes care of the ESMC
protocol. It would probably want to receive a notification when the
state of the DPLL/EEC changes as opposed to polling the kernel or poking
into its log.

So I think that whatever netlink-based interface we agree on to
represent the EEC (devlink or something else), should have the ability
to send a notification when the state changes.
