Something a tad weird happened.  While preparing to test upstream
kernels, I started by removing any proprietary AMD driver with:

    sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx*

(this Dell E6540 laptop comes with a dual video card:  built-in Intel
and "discrete"  AMD Radeon)

After that  I did not experience the issue for several hours, so I
thought that it could have been triggered by the AMD driver.

However, I did make one test:  clean reboot, suspend by closing the lib, then 
resume by opening the lid.
After that I started experiencing the same issue again.

At least I am able to refine a bit how to reproduce:
- close the lid to suspend, open to resume
- whichever window was at the front at time of the suspend now "owns" the 
stick/touchapd events, even if it was not "owning" them before suspend
- Ctrl+Alt+F1 then Ctrl+Alt+F7 restores normal behaviour


Let me try to test these newer kernels now.
