Issue descriptionThe touchpad on Swanky has a bug in its FW version 4.0 that means it may lose all functionality. This new FW 4.0 was added to R51 to patch a pullup resistor issue where the physical click-button could stop working after extended use, however, it appears that it also introduced a new bug which can simply prevent the touchpad from functioning entirely. We need to revert this broken touchpad FW immediately, then upload a new version once Elan (the touchpad vendor) has provided us with a fixed firmware.

Hello, This is an urgent fix to revert a bad touchpad firmware that is completely stopping some Swanky users' touchpads from working. We really need to merge this back to 51 and 52 to get these users' touchpads functional again as soon as possible. The touchpad firmware that this CL reverts it to was the one used previously, so it's known to work. (The newest FW, that caused the issue, was introduced to fix a rare bug with the click button under the touchpad. It's far less common and severe than the bug it introduced though, so we need to revert it quickly and then we'll add a version with both fixes later) Thanks, Charlie

Revert has landed in 51, 52, and ToT. Now we're just waiting for a new FW from Elan
