I have a Thinkpad X1 Carbon 5th gen, and am also affected. Modprobing psmouse also temporarily fixes for me (but if comes back if I close the lid of my laptop and wake it up again), and adding the synaptics_intertouch option in grub also seems to prevent it from coming back.

It only started happening in the last few days, and I generally install updates whenever they are available, though I haven't been using my laptop every day (so it may have started happening in the last week or two at most). I'm surprised it did only start recently, given this bug was filed a while back.
