Input: i8042 - enable MUX on Sony VAIO VGN-CS series to fix touchpad
The touch sensor buttons on Sony VAIO VGN-CS series laptops (e.g. VGN-CS31S) are a separate PS/2 device. As the MUX is disabled for all VAIO machines by the nomux blacklist, the data from touch sensor buttons and touchpad are combined. The protocol used by the buttons is probably similar to the touchpad protocol (both are Synaptics) so both devices get enabled. The controller combines the data, creating a mess which results in random button clicks, touchpad stopping working and lost sync error messages: psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 4 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: issuing reconnect request Add a new i8042_dmi_forcemux_table whitelist with VGN-CS. With MUX enabled, touch sensor buttons are detected as separate device (and left disabled as there's currently no driver), fixing all touchpad problems.
