I've installed 3.15-rc5, but I'm at work and docked for the time being.
I'll see if it happens over the weekend.

Title:
  [Dell Latitude E6540] ALPS touchpad keeps having state reset

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  While using the 'eraser' pointer on my Dell Latitude E6540, the cursor
  will sometimes instantly jump around randomly and open a few windows.
  After this happens, it will become completely unresponsive for 10-20
  seconds.  Sometimes the keyboard will stop responding also.  It seems
  like it is most likely to happen when I bump the trackpad with my palm
  when using the eraser pointer in the middle of the keyboard.  Also - I
  have always had the trackpad disabled when this happens via the Dell
  hotkey (Fn-F5). Of course, it has never happened when the laptop is
  docked and I am using an external keyboard/mouse.
