Hello, I can confirm this is a kernel bug which manifests on the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15IIL05.

Attached is a tarball from the Fedora "Problem Reporting" tool which includes the dmesg and other system data. I realize this isn't a Fedora bug tracker but this is a kernel bug and there doesn't seem to be any other discussion about it.

Below is the relevant log telling us no handlers are registered for the hardware:

With help from the following comment the problem is solved for me on two Ideapad 3 15IIL05: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-signed-hwe/+bug/1878279/comments/81

Just added "i8042.nopnp=1 pci=nocrs" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and ran update-grub

[Lalitha Prasad (lalithaprasad)]

I added the following line to my /etc/default/grub file and updated grub
and my touchpad is now working.

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i8042.nopnp=1 pci=nocrs"
