Hi Dmitry,

I currently don't have access to the device anymore, but apart from missing gesture functionality, it seemed to have some issues with selecting text by clicking and moving the cursor when running in PS/2 mode, so I guess it might be good to push the patch to stable.

This laptop (and perhaps other variants of the same model) reports an

let's add it to the whitelist.

Are there issues with the touchpad when it works in the legacy (PS/2)
mode? I will be applying your patch, I just need to understand if it
needs to go into stable series, or we can just get it into 5.6 and later
versions.

Thanks!
