This is what I did to fix this for me:

# sudo touch /etc/pm/sleep.d/10_touchpad
# sudo chmod 755 /etc/pm/sleep.d/10_touchpad

Then edit the file 10_touchpad and paste the following into it:

#!/bin/sh

case "${1}" in
        resume|thaw)
                rmmod hid_multitouch
                modprobe hid_multitouch
                ;;
esac

Title:
  Touchpad not working after suspend/resume

Status in pm-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.10 on an Acer Laptop, model: Aspire E5-571G-941Y
  $ uname -a
  Linux Acer-Aspire-E5-571G 3.16.0-24-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 28 13:07:32 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  Every time I suspend, the trackpad no longer works when resuming.

  I see several other people have the same issue with the same laptop here:

  (some people say it's a 14.10 specific problem)

  I realize this report is very poor but please don't hesitate to
  request data / clarifications from me, I'll be happy to help.
