I spent some time playing around with the ALPS binary driver, and I
found a detection/init sequence which works on both E6230 and E6430 (at
least the two units I tried).

It would be helpful to see test results + dmesg dumps from users of ALPS
trackpads (ANY model), as my sample size is very small and I'd like to
make sure this does not cause regressions on other hardware versions.
