Trackpoint buttons detection fails on ThinkPad 570 and 470 series,
this makes the middle button of the trackpoint to not being recogized.
As I don't believe there is any trackpoint with less than 3 buttons this
patch just assumes three buttons when the extended button information
read fails.

I vaguely remember there may have been one at some point, but I can't
remember which model it was in (not a Lenovo anyway). This approach seems
sensible, but I worry about it papering over potential bugs (missing
support).

still, Acked-by: Peter Hutterer [off-list ref]

Applied, thank you.
