I assume I'm using T19, since there's a physical click action on the
touchpad along with the normal touch detection.

That didn't make any difference.

I also tried the tool interactively. the "Display raw (M)essages" option
never displayed anything, and the couple of self-tests I tried just
timed out. "Read (I)nfo block" did display some values that seemed like
they might be correct rather than random data.

Interestingly though, I did bisect the series and found "Input:
atmel_mxt_ts - use deep sleep mode when stopped" causes the problem. If
I apply the whole series and revert that one patch, the touchpad works
for mouse movement, but interestingly not for taps or physical clicks.

I'm not sure how I would adjust this; all firmware/config/... was
flashed into the touchpad device itself before I received the system,
and I don't have any firmware files on my host system.
