Input: make sure input interfaces pin parent input devices
Recent driver core change causes references to parent devices being
dropped early, at device_del() time, as opposed to when all children
are freed. This causes oops in evdev with grabbed devices. Take the
reference to the parent input device ourselves to ensure that it
stays around long enough.
