And here it is with all input devices converted over.  Just rename
input_dev to "input" and we are home free...

$ tree -d /sys/class/input_dev/
/sys/class/input_dev/
|-- input0
|   |-- capabilities
|   |-- event0
|   `-- id
|-- input1
|   |-- capabilities
|   |-- device -> ../../../devices/platform/i8042/serio1
|   |-- event1
|   |   `-- device -> ../../../../devices/platform/i8042/serio1

|-- input2
