I pushed the two patches to my focaltech4 branch:
https://github.com/mgottschlag/linux/tree/focaltech4

@Chris: The issue 1) sounds really hard to debug. One possibility might
be that, like above, you enable i8042 debug output display and have a
life view of dmesg in a window on your screen. If you do that, it might
be interesting to know

1) whether there is still data coming from the touchpad (does the syslog output suddenly stop, or do you still see PS/2 traffic?)
2) how the data reported by the touchpad shortly before/after the bug occurs looks - maybe you can try to reproduce the bug and send some dmesg output? The problem here is that the log probably only is useful when you can identify the point where the bug occurs.

Title:
  Touchpad detected as mouse on Asus ux303ln laptop

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux package in Arch Linux:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi! I'm following the bug reporting documentation here:

  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection#In_case_Touchpad_features_like_scrolling.2C_tapping.2C_etc._do_not_work_at_all.

  The touchpad on my new Asus ux303ln laptop is detected as a mouse, so
  I can't access touchpad features such as two-finger scrolling.

  The laptop was very recently released and I couldn't find any
  outstanding firmware updates for it through Asus's Windows-based
  tools.

  % lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  Per the instructions on the wiki, I'm attaching output from
  /proc/bus/input/devices,` xinput --list`, and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

  This machine also has a touchscreen, which I'm fairly certain is the
  "maXtouch digitizer" visible in the logs. I haven't yet restarted in
  Windows to see if it says anything useful about the touchpad, but I
  can do so if that's helpful. This is a fresh install of 14.04 and I
  haven't done much customization of it apart from installing some
  applications and changing the default resolution.

  The only relevant bit I noticed in /var/log/dmesg is this:
