[PATCH] psmouse: ESD workaround fix for OLPC XO touchpad

From: Deepak Saxena
Date: Wed May 13 2009 - 21:17:19 EST



It appears that when the XO touchpad unit resets from ESD, it sends AA
AA instead of AA 00, the psmouse-base code handles the case of AA 00 by
triggering a serio reconnect for the port, causing a full reprobe of
the device.

Testing with OFW shows that this is likely to solve the problem, so
the attached patch simply expands the existing test to also catch AA AA.

This issue was found during testing back in 2007, before I
was involved, and the fix has been carried in the OLPC tree
since then. Not sure how this would affect other systems so
wondering if we should wrap this specific check around
'#ifdef OLPC'?
