[REOPENED] PROBLEM: Elan touchpad regression on Kernel 5.0.10

From: Outvi V <hidden>

Hello,

  Sorry for disturbing. But later I find it is not actually solved. It seems to be a regression that randomly happens. Sometimes the touchpad works after starting without any bad logs, while somethime the touchpad is completely unusable.

  I have filed a bug on Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203467

  If any detail is needed, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Regards,

[8.5.] PCI information
  It seems to be long (over 700 lines) and unrelated to this 
regression. Omitted to avoid flooding. I've kept an archive so feel 
free to ask me to post it if needed.

[8.6.] SCSI information (from /proc/scsi/scsi): (Empty)
[8.7.] Other information that might be relevant to the problem:

  dmesg is constantly showing "elan_i2c i2c-ELAN061B:00: invalid report 
id data (d)".
  I checked the git log and it is likely to be related to commit 
"95df599f95f398b0a34d081dadfdee3126e58163".
  I'm using Arch Linux, its kernel repository link: [1]
  I checked the related file "elan_i2c_core.c" in Arch Linux's kernel 
repository [2], and it is the same as in 5.0.10 on kernel.org.
  My laptop is a Lenovo Legion Y7000.

Please don't hesitate if more information or operation is needed.
