Subject: Input: synaptics - handle spurious release of trackstick buttons

From: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit ebc80840b850db72f7ae84fbcf77630ae5409629 upstream.

The Fimware 8.1 has a bug in which the extra buttons are only sent when the
ExtBit is 1.  This should be fixed in a future FW update which should have
a bump of the minor version.
