Commit 01ac170 landed in mainline as of 3.19-rc1 and commit de16d55 landed in mainline as of v4.5-rc1. However, neither commits were cc'd to stable. This request for 4.2.y was to prevent a revert of a revert due to a bug[0]. In 4.2.y-ckt(And in mainline), commit 01ac170 was reverted by commit 05c7343(Commit b5f88dd in mainline). This introduced bug 1549354[0] in Ubuntu. This bug reports that the Elantech touchpad stopped working. Commit 01ac170 was not reverted in v4.4.y, so it shouldn't have introduced the same bug. The commit message for b5f88dd says: "Fixes: 3df2da968744", but it was not cc'd to stable, so I'm not sure if you plan on including it in 4.4.y. If you do, commit 01ac170 will be needed to prevent the bug. I also should have mentioned commit de16d55 will cause a build failure because it requires commit 14b6257 as a prerequisite. So if you include commit b5f88dd1d in 4.4.y, you will need commits de16d55 and 14b6257a5 to prevent the indicated bug.
