Mouse worked fine in 4.18 however does not work in 4.18.5  Both kernels 
were built with exactly the same .config file (copied from the 4.18 
build dir to the un-tar'ed 4.18.5 directory to build)

Any input on root cause and fix / workaround is appreciated.

"Doesn't work" means : syslog and kernel show that:
1. the kernel finds the mouse
2. gpm finds the mouse and detects its protocol
3. mouse cursor does not move and buttons do not work
	: not in gpm
	: not in X
4. syslog and kernel .config are the same for both versions

Below is the output from syslog and dmesg.

Update : same issue in 4.18.6 @ 20180906
