This problem was fixed (as per the bug in comment #6) by upgrading the
firmware of the Yoga to the latest version (66CN55WW).

Title:
  Random stuck keys on Lenovo Yoga 13

Status in xserver-xorg-input-evdev package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Certain keyboard keys get stuck down seemingly randomly resulting in
  spurious bursts of key repeats. I have mostly noticed this with the
  arrow keys, PgUp, PgDn and Delete. I have tried to replicate the
  behaviour in the console with no luck so I believe this to be specific
  to xserver. Using xev to debug a bit I can see that upon releasing the
  key no keyup event is received. The key is not physically stuck.
  Pressing any key on the keyboard interrupts the keydown repeats.

  The common scenario is either browsing photos with eog or slides with
  evince. This can cause data loss because if the move to trash
  confirmation is disabled in eog you may delete many images without
  even noticing. A minor annoyance when presenting slides because you
  suddenly end up at the last slide in the deck, midway through your
  talk.
