Niklas -

Can you provide some links on how this might be done in userspace?

I've been maintaining my out-of-tree block device trigger for years, to
make the LEDs on my NAS work.

 https://github.com/ipilcher/ledtrig-blkdev/blob/v6.9%2B/drivers/leds/trigger/ledtrig-blkdev.c

I'd love to be able to replace it with something in-tree.
