I fixed a couple panic situations, added a runtime debug flag and fixed
(I think) edge-scrolling.   Additionally I segmented the V6 operations
from the other protocols so other laptops can uses this without a kernel
panic.  This driver should work for all known touchpads - it's the from
the latest kernel and adds Ben Garami's code for the E6420 and mine for
the N5110.

All debug is enabled by default.  See the README alps_debug script to
disable it (which will make the system run a lot faster.)

As previously, see the README for instructions.  At the bottom of
README, I pasted more shell scripts to install, build, run, control my
alps touchpad.  I spent a little time making the scripts generic but if
one doesn't work for you, don't email me asking why.

I tested virt and horz edge-scrolling with "good-enough" touchpad
boundries when doing input_set_abs_params.  I'm sure they can be tuned
better.

I have not looked at multi-touch yet.  It looks to me like the driver
alternately detects the location of each finger as a single input and
updates the cursor position from that.  I need to study the multi-touch
controls a little more to figure out what is going on.

Same steps as in post #152 except the it's now psmouse-alps-dst-0.2 [1].
