The kernel called this device 'uinput' for a long time. 2. There is a longstanding udev rule that renames it to 'input/uinput'. 3. udev has deprecated such renaming rules. 4. New kernel versions call it 'input/uinput', so this rule is no longer triggered. I can't see the upstream change (4) so please point it out.
