How about this, as output from kscan:

$ ./kscan

block:          KERNEL="fd0"
                KERNEL="hda"
                KERNEL="hda1"
                KERNEL="hda2"
                KERNEL="hda3"
                KERNEL="hda4"
                KERNEL="hdc"
                KERNEL="md0"
                KERNEL="sda"
                KERNEL="sda1"
                KERNEL="sdb"
                KERNEL="sdb1"
                KERNEL="sdc"
                KERNEL="sdc1"
                KERNEL="sdc2"
                KERNEL="sdc3"
                KERNEL="sdc5"
                KERNEL="sdd"
                KERNEL="sdd1"
                KERNEL="sde"
                KERNEL="sde1"
                KERNEL="dm-0"
                KERNEL="dm-1"
                KERNEL="dm-2"
                KERNEL="dm-3"

input:          KERNEL="event0"
                KERNEL="event1"
                KERNEL="event2"
                KERNEL="mice"
                KERNEL="mouse0"
