The touch sensor buttons on Sony VAIO VGN-CS series laptops (e.g. VGN-CS31S) are a separate PS/2 device. As the MUX is disabled for all VAIO machines by the nomux blacklist, the data from touch sensor buttons and touchpad are combined. The protocol used by the buttons is probably similar to the touchpad protocol (both are Synaptics) so both devices get enabled. The controller combines the data, creating a mess which results in random button clicks, touchpad stopping working and lost sync error messages: psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 4 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: TouchPad at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost sync at byte 1 psmouse serio1: issuing reconnect request Add a new i8042_dmi_forcemux_table whitelist with VGN-CS. With MUX enabled, touch sensor buttons are detected as separate device (and left disabled as there's currently no driver), fixing all touchpad problems.

The primary interface for the touchpad device in Thinkpad L570 is SMBus, so ALPS overlooked PS2 interface Firmware setting of TrackStick, and shipped with TrackStick otp bit is disabled. The address 0xD7 contains device number information, so we can identify the device by checking this value, but to access it we need to enable Command mode, and then re-enable the device. Devices shipped in Thinkpad L570 report either 0x0C or 0x1D as device numbers, if we see them we assume that the devices are DualPoints. The same issue exists on Dell Latitude 7370.

This reverts commit 48282969 which caused the following issues: 1. On T460p with BIOS version 2.22 touchpad and trackpoint stop working after suspend-resume cycle. Due to strange state of the device another suspend is impossible. The following dmesg errors can be observed: thinkpad_acpi: EC reports that Thermal Table has changed rmi4_smbus 7-002c: failed to get SMBus version number! rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_reset_handler: Failed to read current IRQ mask. rmi4_f01 rmi4-00.fn01: Failed to restore normal operation: -16. rmi4_f01 rmi4-00.fn01: Resume failed with code -16. rmi4_physical rmi4-00: Failed to suspend functions: -16 rmi4_smbus 7-002c: Failed to resume device: -16 PM: resume devices took 0.640 seconds rmi4_f03 rmi4-00.fn03: rmi_f03_pt_write: Failed to write to F03 TX register (-16). rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_clear_irq_bits: Failed to change enabled interrupts! rmi4_physical rmi4-00: rmi_driver_set_irq_bits: Failed to change enabled interrupts! psmouse: probe of serio3 failed with error -1 2. On another T460p with BIOS version 2.15 two finger scrolling gesture on the touchpad stops working after suspend-resume cycle (about 75% reproducibility, when it still works, the scrolling gesture becomes laggy). Nothing suspicious appears in the dmesg. Analysis form Richard Schütz: "RMI is unreliable on the ThinkPad T460p because the device is affected by the firmware behavior addressed in a7ae8195 ("i2c: i801: Allow ACPI SystemIO OpRegion to conflict with PCI BAR")."

Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure. This change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush in the filesystem-DAX case.

Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly. This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow 'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings. RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease' mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can be put in place for vfio. Note that xfs and ext4 still report: "DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" ...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one of the last hurdles to remove that designation.
