What I tried:
   - i8042.nopnp i8042.reset: no change
   - i8042.nomux=1 i8042.reset: keyboard and touchpad work, on warm
and
     cold boot. The multiplexing message and the Spurious ACK
messages
     no longer appear.
   (I have not tested i8042.nomux=1 without i8042.reset.)

Could a DMI quirk with nomux be added for this model?
Yes, but could you first see whether including the reset parameter is
needed? Or it works just with nomux=1 so we won't include unneeded
quirks in the patch.

Thanks,
Lovekesh
Hi Lovekesh,

thanks for the quick reply.

I tested with only i8042.nomux=1 (without i8042.reset). Keyboard and
touchpad work on both a warm reboot and a cold boot, so the reset
parameter is not needed.

/proc/cmdline during the test:
  BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-7.0.0-31-generic ... ro quiet splash
i8042.nomux=1

Happy to test a patch on this machine once you have one.

Best regards,
Heiko
