This reverts commit 43d9edd31e.
This commit was introduced in the 1.2 cycle when hotplugging was less than
ideal (i.e. it didn't exist). From the commit message:
Always add a mouse driver instance configured to send core events, unless
a core pointer already exists using either the mouse or void drivers. This
handles the laptop case where the config file only specifies, say,
synaptics, which causes the touchpad to work but not the pointing stick.
We don't double-instantiate the mouse driver to avoid the mouse moving twice
as fast, and we skip this logic when the user asked for a void core pointer
since that probably means they want to run with no pointer at all.
To get this case above, a user would need to disable hotplugging _and_ have a
xorg.conf that only references one device. This is possible, but not a use-case
we should worry about too much now.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
