I found a workaround last night (sorry, I should have replied to
myself): adb needs to be started as root in order for it to work
after.

Observe (all of this is with the phone connected):
e...@evan-desktop:~$ adb kill-server && adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached

e...@evan-desktop:~$ adb kill-server && sudo adb devices
[sudo] password for evan:
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
HT843GZ46005    device

e...@evan-desktop:~$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT843GZ46005    device

I have no idea what changed overnight/between rebooting, but I'm glad
that it works now. If anyone has any ideas as to what broke it, I'm
all ears.
