The problem seems to be recent kernels tagging more devices as input devices - devices that are unusable to type in passphrases to enable encrypted filesystems, so irrelevant for yeard. I have not yet found a sane way to suppress those irrelevant entries. A workaround is to disable the INPUT module. If you use encrypted filesystems somewhere below the root mountpoint, you then need explicitly enable needed modules instead.
