The detection of crc_enabled is known to fail for Fujitsu H730. A DMI
blacklist is added for that, but it can be expected that other laptops will
pop up with this.
Here a sysfs knob is provided to alter the behaviour of crc_enabled.
Writing 0 or 1 to it sets the variable to 0 or 1. Reading it will show the
crc_enabled variable (0 or 1).

In the past, no elantech was known with 3 touchpad mouse buttons.
Fujitsu H730 is the first known elantech with a middle button. This commit
enables this middle button. For backwards compatibility, the Fujitsu is
detected via DMI, and only for this one 3 buttons will be announced.

The Fujitsu H730 does not work with crc_enabled = 0, even though the
crc_enabled bit in the firmware version indicated it would. When switching
this value to crc_enabled to 1, the touchpad works. This patch uses DMI to
detect H730.

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.

Some elantech v3 touchpad equipped laptops also have a trackpoint, before
this commit, these give sync errors. With this patch, the trackpoint is
provided as another input device: 'Elantech PS/2 TrackPoint'
The patch will also output messages that do not follow the expected pattern.
In the mean time I've seen 2 unknown packets occasionally:
0x04 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00
0x00 , 0x00 , 0x00 , 0x02 , 0x00 , 0x00
I don't know what those are for, but they can be safely ignored.
Currently all packets that are not known to v3 touchpad and where
packet[3] (the fourth byte) lowest nibble is 6 are now recognized as
PACKET_TRACKPOINT and processed by the new elantech_report_trackpoint.
This has been verified to work on a laptop Lenovo L530 where the
touchpad/trackpoint combined identify themselves as:
psmouse serio1: elantech: assuming hardware version 3 (with firmware version 0x350f02)
psmouse serio1: elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 0xb9, 0x15, 0x0c.

elantech_init() calls elantech_set_absolute_mode which sets the driver in
an absolute mode. When after this the elantech_init fails, it is best to
turn the ps/2 mouse emulation mode back on by calling psmouse_reset() so
that it can work as a regular mouse.

The touchpad on the GIGABYTE U2442 not only stops communicating when we try
to set bit 3 (enable real hardware resolution) of reg_10, but on some BIOS
versions also when we set bit 1 (enable two finger mode auto correct).
I've asked the original reporter of:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61151
To check that not setting bit 1 does not lead to any adverse effects on his
model / BIOS revision, and it does not, so this commit fixes the touchpad
not working on these versions by simply never setting bit 1 for laptop
models with the no_hw_res quirk.

At least the Dell Vostro 5470 elantech *clickpad* reports right button
clicks when clicked in the right bottom area:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1103528
This is different from how (elantech) clickpads normally operate, normally
no matter where the user clicks on the pad the pad always reports a left
button event, since there is only 1 hardware button beneath the path.
It looks like Dell has put 2 buttons under the pad, one under each bottom
corner, causing this.
Since this however still clearly is a real clickpad hardware-wise, we still
want to report it as such to userspace, so that things like finger movement
in the bottom area can be properly ignored as it should be on clickpads.
So deal with this weirdness by simply mapping a right click to a left click
on elantech clickpads. As an added advantage this is something which we can
simply do on all elantech clickpads, so no need to add special quirks for
this weird model.

The hw_version 3 Elantech touchpad on the Gigabyte U2442 does not accept
0x0b as initialization value for r10, this stand-alone version of the
driver: http://planet76.com/drivers/elantech/psmouse-elantech-v6.tar.bz2
Uses 0x03 which does work, so this means not setting bit 3 of r10 which
sets: "Enable Real H/W Resolution In Absolute mode"
Which will result in half the x and y resolution we get with that bit set,
so simply not setting it everywhere is not a solution. We've been unable to
find a way to identify touchpads where setting the bit will fail, so this
patch uses a dmi based blacklist for this.

The current assumption in the elantech driver that hw version 3 touchpads
are never clickpads and hw version 4 touchpads are always clickpads is
wrong.
There are several bug reports for this, ie:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1030802
http://superuser.com/questions/619582/right-elantech-touchpad-button-not-working-in-linux
I've spend a couple of hours wading through various bugzillas, launchpads
and forum posts to create a list of fw-versions and capabilities for
different laptop models to find a good method to differentiate between
clickpads and versions with separate hardware buttons.
Which shows that a device being a clickpad is reliable indicated by bit 12
being set in the fw_version. I've included the gathered list inside the
driver, so that we've this info at hand if we need to revisit this later.

The signatures of v3 and v4 packets change depending on the value of a
hardware flag called 'crc_enabled'. The packet type detection must change
accordingly.
This patch also restores a consistency check for v4 packets inadvertently
removed by commit:
9eebed7de660c0b5ab129a9de4f89d20b60de68c
Input: elantech - fix for newer hardware versions (v7)
A note about the naming convention: v3 hardware is associated with IC body
v5 while v4 hardware is associated with IC body v6 and v7. The above commit
refers to IC body v7, not to v7 hardware.

* Fix version recognition in elantech_set_properties
The new hardware reports itself as v7 but the packets'
structure is unaltered.
* Fix packet type recognition in elantech_packet_check_v4
The bitmask used for v6 is too wide, only the last three bits of
the third byte in a packet (packet[3] & 0x03) are actually used to
distinguish between packet types.
Starting from v7, additional information (to be interpreted) is
stored in the remaining bits (packets[3] & 0x1c).
In addition, the value stored in (packet[0] & 0x0c) is no longer
a constant but contains additional information yet to be deciphered.
This change should be backwards compatible with v6 hardware.

V2 hardware has many variants. This patch adddresses two issues:
- some model also has debounce packets, but with a different signature
than v3. Now we just check debounce for all v2 hardware.
- due to different scanning methods the hardware uses, x and y ranges have
to be calculated differently. And for some specific versions, we can just
see them as custom-made, so set {x, y} the same values as Windows driver

Multitouch info was reported only via a old protocol used by the
proprietary X driver from elantech. Let's report the multitouch info
also following the official MT protocol. It's semi-mt because the device
only reports the lowest/highest coordinates.
This was done following the multi-touch-protocol.txt documentation, and
inspired by the bcm5974 and elantech implementations. Testing was light
as there is not many applications using this protocol yet, but the X

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
