I confirmed that 2.6.32-22.36 detects my touchpad as AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint and I see Touchpad tab in Preferences -> Mouse. Contrarily, 2.6.32-23.37 detects it as ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse and I don't see Touchpad tab.
Changelog of 2.6.32-23.37 says:
* Revert "(pre-stable): input: ALPS - Add signature for HP Pavilion dm3
