Sorry. Nobody objected to it. I didn't hear back after last conversation with
Andy and wrongly presumed that adding that interface was a no go.

Yes. That would be ideal. But as you mentioned, currently, not all drivers do
it. So my hope was to have this touchpad interface exposed, which could be used
by applications to derive tablet status.
Lenovo Yogas, when flipped to tablet mode orientation, disables the keyboard and
touchpad.

Can you please help here ?
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-platform-ideapad-laptop mentions that the sysfs
path would be /sys/devices/platform/ideapad/ whereas what I actually see on my
machine is /sys/bus/platform/devices/VPC2004:00/

Thank you. I am building the kernel the test/verify the changes. Will post the
