After multiple sleep/resume cycles, touch screen stops working

[Albert]

This is a thinkpad x1 yoga with a touchscreen, working great under Ubuntu 16.04. Except that, after some sleep/resume cycles, the touchscreen stops to respond altogether. Rebooting solves the issue but it is not ideal by a mile.

I would like to recall and close this bug: the issue most likely has to do with not rebooting after installing package updates. Sleep/resume works fine, but other features can be affected sometimes, including the touch screen functionality.
