Re: [PATCH 2/2] Alps Dualpoint, Interleaved packets

From: Sebastian Kapfer <hidden>

Hi Dmitry,

I really hate to say, but I can still desync it.

[1240043.147596] alps.c: handle cf
[1240043.148778] alps.c: handle 14
[1240043.150043] alps.c: handle 1a
[1240043.157696] alps.c: handle 5f
[1240043.158851] alps.c: handle c
[1240043.160044] alps.c: handle 29
[1240043.163885] alps.c: handle 2f
[1240043.165051] alps.c: handle 0
[1240043.166213] alps.c: handle ff
[1240043.166218] alps.c: refusing packet[5] = ff
[1240043.166221] 
[1240043.166227] psmouse.c: DualPoint TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 6

In short, it's a 6-byte followed by a 3-byte; we mistakenly process it
as a interleaved PS/2 (oh well), and, while the final bytes come in,
happen upon high bits set in the PS/2 packet.  In a way, this is correct
behaviour, because we _are_ processing the data incorrectly...  In my
last patch, this went unnoticed because I didn't check for the high bit
in bytes 7,8,9.

For all practical purposes (i.e. not pressing three buttons and fumbling
with both pointers at the same time), the patch works very well.

In particular, no double clicks.  :-)
