[PATCH] RFC: Only match against event[0-9] in udev rules for vmmouse

It looks like the udev rule was matched against two devices which caused
the driver to be loaded twice. We shouldn't match against the other
device because it will very seldom send bogus events. Some of the bug
this caused was buttons getting stuck.
