Subject: [PATCH] Input: fix wrong synaptics detection in
 psmouse_extensions()

Commit b7802c5c1ea ("Input: psmouse - use boolean type") caused the 
synaptics_hardware variable to be completely useless, as it is constantly 
set to 'true' throughout the whole psmouse_extensions(). This was caused 
by the following hunk in the commit in question

	-       int synaptics_hardware = 0;
	+       bool synaptics_hardware = true;

which is wrong. Fix that up.
