I went and looked at the previous version of xf86AddEnabledDevice, and
it supports multiple calls with the same fd by replacing the callback
and args. We can do the same thing with InputThreadRegisterDev and make
it actually compatible with the old API. Seems like a more sane plan
than having duplicate fds in the input device list, only one of which
actually gets used.
