I have applied this patch for now, since it should be safe to do so
as the exceptions added are DMI string based.

But I would really like to see a better fix for this, by for example
checking if the touchpad is connected over I2C. Can you run
"acpidump -o acpidump.txt" and then send me a private email with the
generated acpidump.txt ? Please do this for both models if possible.

Also I don't entirely understand why this patch is necessary in
the first place. You say that the touchpad is connected over I2C;
and when priv->features.touchpad_ctrl_via_ec = 1 the following
2 commands are possibly run by the driver:

i8042_command(&param, value ? I8042_CMD_AUX_ENABLE : I8042_CMD_AUX_DISABLE);

if (!priv->features.touchpad_ctrl_via_ec)
write_ec_cmd(priv->adev->handle, VPCCMD_W_TOUCHPAD, 1);

Note the second command actually gets enabled by this patch setting
priv->features.touchpad_ctrl_via_ec = 0.

What (undesirable) behavior are you seeing without this patch ?

And can you try a kernel without this patch and then comment
out the i8042_command() command and see if that helps ?

If that does not help, can you try removing the "if" part of:

if (!priv->features.touchpad_ctrl_via_ec)
write_ec_cmd(priv->adev->handle, VPCCMD_W_TOUCHPAD, 1);

So that the write_ec_cmd() happens unconditionally and see if that
helps ?

Regards,

Hans
