Subject: [056/143] Input: elantech - discard the first 2 positions on some firmwares

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Éric Piel <eric.piel@...mplin-utc.net>

commit 7f29f17b57255b6395046805a98bc663ded63fb8 upstream.

According to the Dell/Ubuntu driver, what was previously observed as
"jumpy cursor" corresponds to the hardware sending incorrect data for
the first two reports of a one touch finger. So let's use the same
workaround as in the other driver. Also, detect another firmware
version with the same behaviour, as in the other driver.
