Any of the ones to dell-laptop are still blocking on Matthew Garrett 
getting his support upstream to i8042 filtering.  Once that happens, 
they need to be reworked.  I haven't seen anything recently submitted to 
i8042 for this rework (although I may have missed it).

The compal-laptop ones, as simple as they are, just get ignored when I 
send them to LKML.  I'll resend them again if that's the proper venue to 
go,  but any advice on somewhere else I *should* be sending them so 
they're not ignored again?
