There are many ways to skin this particular cat.

 * You can pin the evdev driver to a particular device, if the devices
   have different names via the "Name" option, as follows:

     Option "Name" "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"

   The value here is what's in the name field in /proc/bus/input/devices

 * You can pin the evdev device nodes that udev generates (for
   event[0-9]). See http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html for
   some help on writing udev rules.

 * You can use something other than evdev.
