A workaround for Ubuntu 15.04 is to add a new service to systemd which
reloads the module after suspend:

sven@:/etc/systemd/system$ more touchscreen.service
[Unit]
Description=Restore touchscreen after suspend
After=suspend.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe -r hid_multitouch
ExecStart=/sbin/modprobe hid_multitouch

[Install]
WantedBy=suspend.target

sven@:/etc/systemd/system$ sudo systemctl enable
/etc/systemd/system/touchscreen.service

Title:
  Touchpad not working after suspend/resume

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

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:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2250002
  (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.
