I'll give it a shot.  I think all of the /proc info is also available 
from ioctls on the device files, I'll use that instead of parsing.

I was thinking about just changing the input class accept function from 
class_device_accept() to a custom accept function that accepts even if 
there is no sysfs device.  How far would that get me?
