Could you please try this patch (again if you could post dmesg that
would be great). Thank you!

The patch quoted below also fixes the problem. I attached the
syslog with i8042.debug (with a s2ram in the middle) to the
bugzilla: 

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14392

Still not quite happy, although it is better. I don't understand why
your box likes to reply on AUX port when command is sent via keyboard
port.

Could you please try booting with atkbd.reset (I assume keyboard is
built in) and send me yet another dmesg.

Oh, yes, keep the last patch applied. Thanks!

I uploaded the dmesg with atkbd.reset (and i8042.debug too, btw)
to the bugzilla.

Hmm, this is messed up... For some reason your box insists on replying
to reset commands from AUX port, no matter what device we trying to
reset. Does your box (Vaio, right?) has external PS/2 ports? I don't
believe Vaios have docking stations... 

My Vaio has no PS/2 port and no docking station.

Also, could you please boot with
i8042.nomux and send me yet another dmesg and dmidecode too.

Ok, they are in the kernel bugzilla #14392 now.

Thanks for your patience.

I thank _you_ for digging the problem even further. Your proposed patch
"fixed" it already for me, but you are being honest in saying that
you are still not happy with your fix and want to do better. I really
appreciate that and will help you with what I can do. I hope there is
a way out of my Vaio's oddities.
