a good try, and amount of effort.
Sadly, notifications are on the PIPE_INTERRUPT
If everything's working fine otherwise (ie UPS status changes are seen), you
should dig a bit more the code as it sound like a kernel regression.
If something is not working, you can try to reset the communication: power
off the UPS, then unplug its power cable, wait (at least) 10 seconds and
replug/restart all.
