No mouse after resume from suspend and recent update

Recent kernel update and switch to systemd has caused my resume from suspend to break. (AsRock S330 nettop computer with wireless USB keyboard and mouse and no PS/2 ports. This machine requires the kernel parameter "i8042.noaux" to boot properly.).

The dmesg output is here: https://gist.github.com/3772161 . Note at 37.829 seconds the errors relating to i8042.

I have attempted to add a couple of kernel parameters to boot (i8042.reset, i8042.nokbd, i8042.nomux) but to no avail.
I have also tried simply removing and reinserting the "psmouse" module, also to no avail.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

ADDENDUM: further investigation reveals that when I use a standard USB wired mouse all works fine. The problem appears to be the Logitech USB Receiver LX710, especially the mouse part (keyboard is fine). Also reported at Red Hat forums:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848037

ADDENDUM2: Ok, slowly getting somewhere, reports at Ubuntu bugs same: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1049623

And there appears to be a patch for it here: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/g … f94c4129f9

Could someone explain to me how I would implement that patch?
