We found same issue on several devices (running Debian Whezzy  with
kernel 3.14)

But. we have many other "same" device with this firmware reported  from
psmouse:

[    9.906882] psmouse serio4: elantech: assuming hardware version 3 (with 
firmware version 0x450f02)
[    9.920408] psmouse serio4: elantech: Synaptics capabilities query result 
0x09, 0x16, 0x09.

i down know if same touch hardware with different firmware or the
hardware is no same

On the firmware 0x450f02 the problem does not happen

Do you have a bios update to try?

 I will contact to our vendor to ask if  bios update can be fix the
buggie devices.

on windows with 0x354f01 the issue is little different, the touchpad
freeze few seconds and work again.
