After several painstaking hours I finally got it working on Manjaro, so
I wanted to share my experience for anyone else that is new to patching
the kernel like me.  This is my first time ever doing so.

I tried and tried to make this work on Ubuntu Budgie 20.10 following the
guide by @Baq Domalaq (baq)  but I just couldnt get the ubuntu kernel to
build.  Manjaro on the other hand was fairly painless.

This only works for Manjaro

1. Clone the kernel repo for linux 5.8
# git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/packages/core/linux58.git

2. open the repo
# cd ./linux58

3. Download the patch from #179
# wget 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1887190/+attachment/5418465/+files/0303-pinctrl-amd2.patch

4. Edit the PKGBUILD file and add '0303-pinctrl-amd2.patch' after the
line that has '0303-pinctrl-amd.patch'

5. Update the checksums
# updpkgsums

6. Build the package.  This will take some time.  You may be prompted for 
something about PREMPT.  Choose CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY.
# makepkg -s

7. Once it's done, you can install the package.
# makepkg -i

In my case, this broke the nvidia driver so I ended up uninstalling the
nonfree driver and using the free driver instead. This can be done with
the following commands.

8. Remove nonfree driver.  Could also be video-nvidia-455xx
# sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia-440xx

9. Install the free driver
# sudo mhwd -i pci video-linux

Also installing the free driver fixed the display brightness issue.
Everything seems to be working for me now!

In case anyone runs into any issues, this is the guide I followed to
build the kernel. https://leduccc.medium.com/compiling-a-custom-linux-

Bug description:
  Hello

  The MSFT touchpad of this Lenovo Legion-5 15ARH05 laptop is not reacting at 
all (pointer and click never move when touchpad is touched). This has been 
reported by other users in various websites, with various linux systems 
including other Ubuntu systems, but I saw no launchpad bug so I post one. 
Example of websites covering the issue :
  - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1253830/lenovo-legion-5-touchpad (exactly 
the same laptop)
  - https://www.linux.org/threads/lenovo-legion-5-touchpad.29536/ (similar 
laptop)

  xinput indentifies it as MSFT0001:00 04F3:3140

  Thanks a lot for your time. It does not help, but I can confirm what
  was reported on askubuntu by another user : the touchpad does work on
  Windows.
