Title:
  Add support for ForcePads found on HP EliteBook Folio 1040

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Please include the following commit from mainline in Ubuntu kernel:

  Subject: Input: synaptics - add support for ForcePads

  ForcePads are found on HP EliteBook 1040 laptops. They lack any kind of
  physical buttons, instead they generate primary button click when user
  presses somewhat hard on the surface of the touchpad. Unfortunately they
  also report primary button click whenever there are 2 or more contacts
  on the pad, messing up all multi-finger gestures (2-finger scrolling,
  multi-finger tapping, etc). To cope with this behavior we introduce a
  delay (currently 50 msecs) in reporting primary press in case more
  contacts appear.
