As device health is just one piece of information out of the device management,
I think that you should address this in a more comprehensive way,
And set hooks for much more device info:
Allow access to device descriptors, attributes and flags.
The attributes and flags should be placed in separate subfolders
The LUN specific descriptors and attributes should be placed in a luns subfolder, and then per descriptor / attribute type
You might also would like to consider differentiating read and write - to control those type of accesses as well.

Cheers,
