Using track-point after touchpad scrolling jumps view back to top

Reported by redsan...@gmail.com, Jun 10 2016

Issue description

Chrome Version       : 51.0.2704.84
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
    Firefox: OK
     Chrome: FAIL

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Go to any long page e.g. wikipedia
(2) Scroll down using touchpad
(3) Start moving the mouse pointer with the track-point (Lenovo laptops have them)

What is the expected result?
Page stays where we scrolled to and now we move the mouse cursor

What happens instead?
Page jumps back to top

If the view doesn't jump back after using the track-point, sometimes it will jump back to the top if scrolling a second time using the touchpad.

This behavior is new. It was introduced during an update somewhere in the last month.

I'm using the `google-chrome-stable` package on Linux Mint 17.3 (Ubuntu 14.4.3)

-edit- 
If the view doesn't jump back after using the track-point, sometimes it will jump back to the top if scrolling a second time using the touchpad.
-should be-
If the view doesn't jump back after using the track-point, sometimes it will jump back to the top if scrolling a second time using the touchpad __after having touched the track-point__.

The problem is when switching between touchpad and trackpoint.

You can actually get the webpage to disappear.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Go to any long page e.g. wikipedia
(2) Scroll all the way down (touchpad)
(3) Scroll all the way up (touchpad)
(4) Move the mousepointer just a bit (trackpoint), page will jump back down
(5) Repeat step 3 and 4 30 to 40 times
(6) BAM, page white, scrollbar empty.
