[PATCH] Force ELAN06FA touchpad I2C bus freq to 100KHz

When a 400KHz freq is used on this model of ELAN touchpad,
excessive smoothing (similar to when there is noise in the signal)
is sometimes applied. As some devices' (e.g, Lenovo V15 G4) ACPI
tables do not specify the 100KHz frequency requirement, and some
I2C busses (e.g, Designware I2C) default to a 400KHz frequency,
it is necessary to force the speed to 100KHz.
