This is what I could come up with:
if (event & REGULATOR_EVENT_VOLTAGE_CHANGE) {
name = dev_attr_microvolts.attr.name;
sysfs_notify(&rdev->dev.kobj, NULL, name);
} else if (event & (REGULATOR_EVENT_DISABLE | REGULATOR_EVENT_ENABLE)){
name = dev_attr_status.attr.name;
sysfs_notify(&rdev->dev.kobj, NULL, name);
}
