As it is now, the touchpad will stop working upon resume, returning an
invalid id (and requires a cumbersome workaround of reloading the 
module). As the touchpad FW is opaque to me, the only way I could 
resolve the bug was through trial-and-error. Including the touchpad in 
the 'special fw' resolves the bug and the touchpad resumes without issue.

Now, even if the function is indeed used to resolve a different issue on 
other ASUS touchpads, I would argue that this is the most pragmatic way 
of resolving the problem on X205TA, X205TAW and F205TA (and possibly 
also X200HA & X206HA, though I don't have those to test).

It shouldn't affect any other models or touchpad products.

Thanks!
