[PATCH synaptics] Provide a configuration knob for disabling motion events

[Matthew Garrett]

Users with devices that provide both a touchpad and an alternative input
device may not want to use the touchpad for pointer motion but may still
want to use it for gesture-based inputs. Add a configuration knob that
allows them to do so.
