Which appears to be getting a FD to "kernel" event source, via socket created by
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/hardware/libhardware_legacy/+/android-4.3_r3/uevent/uevent.c

so if we filter those VSYNC events on the "udev" source, systemd-udev
& upstart & et al user space shouldn't be spammed with those and the
driver will still work.
