Bug Description

I just upgraded to linux kernel 5.0.0-31. When I use the trackpad on my Lenovo Yoga 260 to click with one finger, and drag with another, it doesn't move the thing I'm trying to drag. If I use one finger, it works fine, but its hard to drag it far with only one finger, because I can't pick the finger up and move it back to drag some more. I went and booted from 5.0.0-29, and everything is fine again. I'm back to 5.0.0-31 and the problem is back.

Please test latest mainline kernel:
https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.4-rc1/

If it works we probably need to backport this fix:
