No. From the description it sounds like the device sends wrong/extra
data right after resume. I think you can handle it in
elantech_reconnect() method by draining the buffer or issuing poll
request or something similar.

Can you post the i8042 data stream that happens on suspend/resume?
Toggling i8042.debug option will cause the driver to dump the data to
dmesg.

Thanks.
