FWIW: that says that the wireless driver is sending "updated" metadata back to the device for books the device claims to have. The exact meaning is complicated by whether or not the device supports metadata caching in the driver, but is up to the device to update its own "database" with the metadata sent by the driver.
The driver has no access to the device's memory. It requests information from the client and uses that to build a list of books on the device. Later it gives metadata back to the client, and the client does whatever it wants with that metadata. When you send a book it is the client that decides where to store it and whether it is an overwrite or a new format.
