Thing is, it's not in the commit logs for any vanilla kernel, so perhaps
you had a different problem.

To my knowledge this is not in the mainline kernel yet, I don't know
what the holdup is.

[Bug 1752437]

AFAIK, patches aren't normally part of a kernel release...those are up
to your distro.

So, it sounds like some distros are including this in their patchsets
they apply, but I see no mention of this issue in any of the changelogs
yet for mainline kernel releases.  This is one aspect of this bug
tracking system I find frustrating...I don't see a link from the bug
pointing to the release it is fixed in, and vice versa.  The bug
tracking and release systems are not tied together as best I can tell.

In order to patch my distro, I had to recompile from source, and hand-
create a patch using the edits in the last attachment in this thread.
My biggest hassle was the fact that I have a slow and flaky internet
connection, and git is just a pile o' crap when it comes to dealing with
that (no download resume support...).  I opted to download the source
manually, then hack the MAKEPKG for Arch to skip the whole process.  I
could have just directly hand-edited the source at that point, but still
opted to just create a patch file, and edited MAKEPKG to pull in my
custom file.

You then have to add it to your boot loader, etc., just like any other
kernel build.

[Bug 1752437]

2018-11-29 Thread m.kolesinski
I was able to test the latest patch from Hans on Arch Linux with
4.19.4-arch1 on my HP M6-AR004DX AMD FX-9800p laptop, and can confirm
that the ELAN0732 touchscreen finally works!  No need for the ACPI/DSDT
edits.  No more GPIO errors in journalctl, and the device was detected
and installed with hid_multitouch.

To add icing to the cake, it even worked on the login screen (GDM) and
within Gnome 3, with no manual configuration steps required, and no
calibration required.

I had a bear of a time testing the patch this time (no issue with the
patch itself); the latest Arch build scripts have moved to pulling
kernel source via a git clone (massive download...multiple gigs...I have
a relatively slow connection, and git clone offers no restart ability if
the download times out or fails partway...).  I had to manually download
source with http and hack PKGBUILD to point at my local source copy (the
latest Arch PKGBUILD also points to a newer kernel than the latest Arch
release...seems like a problem), in addition to adding the patch file to
prepare().
