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
| `-- id
|-- input2
| |-- capabilities
| |-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0

`-- mice
