Why does it have the INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_BUS after all?
For userspace benefits.
How exactly does the userspace benefit from the
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_BUS thing?
This is still not answered. If INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_BUS
is there, then I don't see the argument that the input
layer is not designed for the like things.

You just do not want to implement proper access control for the
hardware, that's it.
Depends on an answer to the question above, whether using
input is the proper way or not.
