This can be done instead by comparing the backend interface pointer in
struct libinput to the one defined in either path.c or udev-seat.c.

if (libinput->interface_backend != &interface_backend) {
	log(...);
	return NULL;
}

I think doing it like that is preferred, since we should avoid
per-backend logic in the front end anyway.
