Subject: [PATCH] input: introduce a tougher i8042.reset
Some bad touchpads don't reset right the first time (MSI Wind U-100 for
example). This patch will retry the reset up to 5 times.
In addition, this patch also adds a module parameter to not treat
reset failures as fatal to the usage of the device. This prevents
a touchpad failure from also disabling the keyboard....
