From profiles/hardened/x86/2.6/use.mask:
# Modular X: mask for architectures on which they aren't available
input_devices_evdev

But input_devices_evdev is required for input_devices_synaptics to work on my laptop.  See bug #134309

Also in, input_devices_synaptics in unasked in the same profiles/hardened/x86/2.6/use.mask:
# Modular X: unmask for architectures on which they are available
-input_devices_synaptics

input_devices_evdev was added to use.mask 2 days ago on May 23rd:

Reproducible: Always
