Request number for ioctls are encoded as 8bit numbers, but unfortunately
UI_GET_SYSNAME and UI_GET_VERSION specifu values larger than that, so they
get truncated to 44 (0x2c) and 45 (0x2d). This change makes requested
values match their effective values (the ABI stays intact).

This ioctl is the counterpart to EVIOCGVERSION and returns the
uinput-version the kernel was compiled with.

uinput is used in the xorg-integration-tests suite and in the wayland
test suite. These automated tests suites create many virtual input
devices and then hook something to read these newly created devices.
Currently, uinput does not provide the created input device, which means
that we rely on an heuristic to guess which input node was created.
The problem is that is heuristic is subjected to races between different
uinput devices or even with physical devices. Having a way to retrieve
the sysfs path allows us to find without any doubts the event node.
