Subject: [PATCH 01/01] drivers:input:byd fix greedy detection of Sentelic FSP
 by the BYD touchpad driver

From: Christophe TORDEUX <christophe@...deux.net>

With kernel v4.6 and later, the Sentelic touchpad STL3888_C0 and
probably other Sentelic FSP touchpads are detected as a BYD touchpad and
lose multitouch features.

During the BYD handshake in the byd_detect function, the BYD driver
mistakenly interprets a standard PS/2 protocol status request answer
from the Sentelic touchpad as a successful handshake with a BYD
touchpad. This is clearly a bug of the BYD driver.

Description of the patch: In byd_detect function, remove positive
detection result based on standard PS/2 protocol status request answer.
Replace it with positive detection based on handshake answers as they
can be inferred from the BYD touchpad datasheets found on BYD website.

Resubmitting this patch because I got no feedback on my first 
submission.
Fixes kernel bug 175421 which is impacting multiple users.
