Reading kdrive evdev sources, I've found that
EvdevPtrDisable/EvdevKbdDisable functions
do have a KdUnregisterFd() call. Example:

static void
EvdevPtrDisable(KdPointerInfo * pi)
{
    Kevdev *ke;

    ke = pi->driverPrivate;

    if (!pi || !pi->driverPrivate)
        return;

    KdUnregisterFd(pi, ke->fd, TRUE);

    if (ioctl(ke->fd, EVIOCGRAB, 0) < 0)
        perror("Ungrabbing evdev mouse device failed");

    free(ke);
    pi->driverPrivate = 0;
}

However, it seems to fail in my system, because I always get
that "Ungrabbing evdev mouse device failed" error message.
