kernfs has historically used const void * to pass around namespace tags

ns_common * throughout the kernfs, sysfs, and kobject namespace layers.

In that case, the driver needs to notify user space about the channel evacuation, so the user space can adjust the local schedule accordingly. Add a notification to let userspace know about it.
