Ulrik De Bie c6c748ef85 Input: elantech - update the documentation
A chapter is added to describe the trackpoint packets.

A section is added to describe the behaviour of the knob crc_enabled in
sysfs.

The introduction of the documentation only mentioned v1/v2, but in the
last part it already contains explanation of v3 and v4. The introduction
is updated.

Hans de Goede 36189cc3cd Input: elantech - fix touchpad initialization on Gigabyte U2442
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.

JJ Ding 1dc6edec12 Input: elantech - add v4 hardware support
v4 hardware is a true multitouch capable touchpad (up to 5 fingers).
The packet format is quite complex, please see protocol document for
reference.

JJ Ding 28f4961611 Input: elantech - add v3 hardware support
v3 hardware's packet format is almost identical to v2 (one/three finger touch),
except when sensing two finger touch, the hardware sends 12 bytes of data.

JJ Ding 1155961946 Input: elantech - correct x, y value range for v2 hardware
x, y values are actually 12-bit long. Also update protocol document to
reflect the change.

Éric Piel 71c6d18859 Input: elantech - describe further the protocol
For some Dell laptops, Ubuntu had a special version of the elantech
driver with more knowledge on the devices. It can be found there:
http://zinc.ubuntu.com/git?p=mid-team/hardy-netbook.git;a=blob;f=drivers/input/mouse/elantech.c;h=d0e2cafed162428f72e3654f4dda85e08ea486b3;hb=refs/heads/abi-22

By inspecting the source code, and doing some test on a real hardware, I
have completed the protocol specification (especially for the 6 bytes
protocol). It also adds information about the mapping between the
version reported by the device and the protocol to use.

Florian Ragwitz e938fbfd4a Input: elantech - ignore high bits in the position coordinates
In older versions of the elantech hardware/firmware those bits always
were unset, so it didn't actually matter, but newer versions seem to
use those high bits for something else, screwing up the coordinates
we report to the input layer for those devices.

Arjan Opmeer 2a0bd75e5e Input: psmouse - add support for Elantech touchpads
This is version 5 of the driver. Relative mode support has been
dropped (users wishing to use touchpad in relative mode can use
standard PS/2 protocol emulation done in hardware). The driver
supports both original version of Elantech protocol and the newer
one used by touchpads installed in EeePC.
