The events for these devices would not work both because of the broken
dereference fixed in patch 2 and the alert signal was not being enabled.
Patch 2 fixed a null pointer dereference that would lead to an error in the
kernel. This patch (on top of the previous one) makes the event generation
actually work although it's not fixing any errors.
I was hesitant in marking this one with a fixes tag too worrying I might be
adding too many fixes tags for a feature that never worked.
Anyway, looks like I should have added that so at least now I have learned something.
Will see how to ask backports for the fixing patches once they get in mainline.
