Just in case someone experience the same issue than me (or probably same than 
Dave earlier too), i.e. the touchpad is recognized by the new kernel, but then 
stops working again...
I installed 3.16-1 and the problem persisted.
However, I just realized that I still had some psmouse dkms module installed 
from a previous try at fixing the issue.

I just ran:
<quote> sudo dkms remove -m psmouse -v elantech-x551c --all 
sudo rmmod psmouse
sudo modprobe psmouse</quote>
And the scrolling is miraculously back!

Let's just hope it persists after reboot.
No one else has complained in a while... maybe this bug should be tagged as 
fixed?
