Subject: Input: synaptics - add support for ForcePads
From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 5715fc764f7753d464dbe094b5ef9cffa6e479a4 upstream.
ForcePads are found on HP EliteBook 1040 laptops. They lack any kind of
physical buttons, instead they generate primary button click when user
presses somewhat hard on the surface of the touchpad. Unfortunately they
also report primary button click whenever there are 2 or more contacts
on the pad, messing up all multi-finger gestures (2-finger scrolling,
multi-finger tapping, etc). To cope with this behavior we introduce a
delay (currently 50 msecs) in reporting primary press in case more
contacts appear.
