There are some new HP laptops with Elantech touchpad don't support 
multitouch.

Both ETP_BUS_SMB_HST_NTFY_ONLY and ETP_BUS_PS2_SMB_HST_NTFY devices 
can use SMBus to support 5 fingers touch, so we need to chech them too.

So use elantech_use_host_notify() to do a more thouroughly check.

That was my initial approach of the series, but I ended up being more 
conservative as this would flip all of the existing elantech SMBUS 
capable touchpads to use elan_i2c.
And I didn't want to deal with 4/5 year old laptops that suddenly broke.

So I wonder if you can restrict this default change to the recent 
laptops (let's say 2018+). Maybe by looking at their FW version or 
something else in the DMI?
It was KT who told me that I should use ETP_BUS_PS2_SMB_HST_NTFY.

As for date, KT still knows better than me.

KT,
Can you name a year which is safe enough to enable SMBus?

I have discussed it internally. 
The internal rule for FW's SMbus implementation is stable after 2018 
If you meet some special case, please let me know.
Thanks for the info. I’ll use this for the V2 patch.
BTW, The SMbus supporting is requested by HP this time, and there are 
plenty of HP laptop use old IC which doesn't meet " 
ETP_NEW_IC_SMBUS_HOST_NOTIFY”.
One more question, does ETP_BUS_SMB_HST_NTFY_ONLY means it should stick to SMBus, because it doesn’t support PS/2?

I’d like to merge all checks into elantech_use_host_notify() but ETP_BUS_SMB_HST_NTFY_ONLY caught my attention.

ETP_BUS_SMB_HST_NTFY_ONLY is for our previous planning but it never happen so far, and it won't happen in the future.
There are two cases for our released touchpad and they are " ETP_BUS_PS2_ONLY" and " ETP_BUS_PS2_SMB_HST_NTFY".

Thanks
KT

Elan touchpad works well in PS/2 for HP, because it don't support 
TrackPoint.
You may let old HP platform work as PS/2 for safety.

Thanks
