Synaptics touchpad not working after suspend, psmouse.synaptics_intertouch

Synaptics touchpad not working after suspend, psmouse.synaptics_intertouch

[arch.hias]

Hi,

I'm experiencing an issue with the Synaptics touchpad on my laptop not 
working after resuming from suspend.

This began after upgrading from linux-lts 6.12.19-1 -> 6.12.21-1 [2]


Hardware:
- Touchpad: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad (PNP: SYN1221 PNP0f13)
- Distro: Arch Linux issue began after systemupgrade linux-lts 
(6.12.19-1 -> 6.12.21-1) (kernel 6.12.24-1-lts)

Description:
After resuming from suspend, the touchpad is not detected. However, if I 
suspend and resume a second time, it works again. While checking the 
logs, I found the following kernel message:

kernel: psmouse serio2: synaptics: Your touchpad (PNP: SYN1221 PNP0f13) 
says it can support a different bus. If i2c-hid and hid-rmi are not 
used, you might want to try setting psmouse.synaptics_intertouch to 1 
and report this to linux-input@vger.kernel.org.

I had previously set `psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=0`, as recommended in 
the Arch Wiki[1].
After changing it to `1`, the touchpad now consistently works after suspend.

This setting appears to resolve the issue for my device. I wanted to 
share this in case it’s helpful for others or worth considering for 
default handling of this hardware.

To test it, I first removed the kernel command line option 
`psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=1`.

The issue still occurs with the unpatched kernel `linux-lts-6.12.27-1` 
from the Arch Linux repositories [1].

After building and installing the package [1] with your patch applied, 
the touchpad works reliably — even without the 
`psmouse.synaptics_intertouch=1` option.

This is my first time testing and reporting a kernel patch, so the 
process is new and quite interesting to me. Let me know if I can help 
with further testing or provide additional infos.

Thanks for testing, I’ll submit the patch soon.
