Since the changes in 34bfe7d720658c7f0d14c61f44fb2a5516073c12 I'm unable to use the trackpad on a Thinkpad A275 any more. psmouse needs "proto=exps" otherwise it's impossible to click on scrollbars etc because pressing and holding a button is considered as a click, as also reported upstream in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203897
This task depends upon

Correction: It's the trackpoint, not the trackpad.

Switched to psmouse.proto at the kernel command line.
