1cbd53c8cd85("usb: core: introduce per-port over-current counters") usb ports expose a sysfs value 'over_current_count' to user space. This value on its own is not very useful as it requires manual polling.As a solution, fire a udev event from the usb hub device that specifies the values '
OVER_CURRENT_PORT' and 'OVER_CURRENT_COUNT' that indicate the path of the usb port where the over-current event occurred and the value of 'over_current_count' in sysfs. Additionally, callsysfs_notify()so the sysfs value supportspoll().

This patch doesn't apply against my usb-next branch at the moment.
Can you rebase it and resend?
thanks,
