I applied your v4 patch, and that fixes it somewhat insomuch as it it
working, but it keeps resetting itself if i stop using it for a few
milliseconds, so the mouse appears sluggish as it performs a reset
whenever i use it. Here are the messages i see (100's of them).

Hi Dmitry,
Your patch (applied to 2.6.11.8) hangs my touchpad mouse totally.
The error i get on bootup

and the mouse works fine (except when it goes crazy and jumps all over
the place). I've been suffering with the problem for a long while on
this hardware..
Ahem, yep, I broke ALPS... Please try applying the patchlet below on top
of what I have posted or grab an updated version of the patch:
