psmouse_reconnect() will not be called if psmouse driver is not bound to
the serio port, so there is no point in checking that.  Also, as coded, it
introduces potential NULL dereference in psmouse_dbg() in case psmouse is
indeed NULL. Let's just remove it.

I believe the intent of the code was to drop oldest bytes from the queue,
not the latest if we drop one byte and both latest and some oldest of we
are dropping more than one.

Since the change to struct input_mt_pos some variables are now bitfields
instead of integers. Automatic conversion from integer to bitfield entry
destroys information, therefore enforce boolean interpretation instead.

Unfortunately, ForcePad capability is not actually exported over PS/2, so
we have to resort to DMI checks.

<title>Input: psmouse - add support for detecting FocalTech PS/2 touchpads</title>

The Asus X450 and X550 laptops use a PS/2 touchpad from a new
manufacturer called FocalTech:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77391
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110011

The protocol for these devices is not known at this time, but even
without knowing the protocol they need some special handling. They get
upset by some of our other PS/2 device probing, and once upset generate
random mouse events making things unusable even with an external mouse.

This patch adds detection of these devices based on their pnp ids, and
when they are detected, treats them as a bare ps/2 mouse. Doing things
this way they at least work in their ps/2 mouse emulation mode.

The matches_pnp_id function from the synaptics driver is useful for other
drivers too. Make it a generic psmouse helper function.

ForcePads are found on HP EliteBook 1040 laptops. They lack any kind of
physical buttons, instead they generate primary button click when user
presses somewhat hard on the surface of the touchpad. Unfortunately they
also report primary button click whenever there are 2 or more contacts
on the pad, messing up all multi-finger gestures (2-finger scrolling,
multi-finger tapping, etc). To cope with this behavior we introduce a
delay (currently 50 msecs) in reporting primary press in case more
contacts appear.

missing the POINTER property while working on the POINTING_STICK property.

It is useful for userspace to know that there not dealing with a regular
mouse but rather with a pointing stick (e.g. a trackpoint) so that
userspace can e.g. automatically enable middle button scrollwheel
emulation.

It is impossible to tell the difference from the evdev info without
resorting to putting a list of device / driver names in userspace, this is
undesirable.

Add a property which allows userspace to see if a device is a pointing
stick, and set it on all the pointing stick drivers.
