I can confirm that this bug affects kernels up to 4.13.0-17 but it is a little better on that one.
Tested it on Ubuntu 16.04.3, Ubuntu Mate 17.10 and Linux Mint 18.3.

I have: Lenovo Ideapad 320 (very similar to @Vasilj). Today I tried to fix this bug with different methods with no results.
I tried:
All workaround provided on this site, puting different set of options into grub configuration (i8042.reset, nopnp, nomux), switching on and off elan_i2c module. Even tried changing libinput to synaptics.

In kernel lower than 4.13 xinput did not show any signs of Elana Touchpad. In kernel 4.13.0-17 xinput shows Elan Touchpad.
But the biggest improvement is that my pointer actually works for a very brief moment (30-60 sec). In this time syslog is massively flooded with "invalid report id data".
