Patch to add initial support for clickpad series of trackpads.

The Synaptics newer Clickpad series of trackpads are currently unusable with the driver. These trackpads don't have 'external' buttons like classical trackpads, but instead the buttons are under the trackingplate and act as part of it.

Here is a refrence imgage: http://bit.ly/clickpad

Biggest problem is that the second mouse button is not detected and acts as mouse button one. Resulting in bad usability. There is a patch to fix this clickpad.patch .

Another problem is that after aplying the patch abowe to add support for clickpads is that click and drag wont work. To drag something a double click is required, but pressing the button and dragging results in 2 finger scrolling.
So the tracking-area over the buttons should be disabled when physicality mouse-click is detected.

The trackpads also provide a led to show the state of the trackpad. This led is also supposed to act as on/off switch triggered by a double-click. Currently for this led to function a kernel patch to psmouse kernel driver is required. But the double tap switch works without the led. Patch clickpad_with_led_and_onoff_swich.patch

I also attached the kernel patch for testing.
