Vivobook M533ua i2c-ELAN1300 Touchpad random freezes.

Hi.

I bought a new ryzen 5000 viviobook that has i2c-ELAN1300. I have some random freezes from time to time. The touchpad is handled by the i2c-hid module.  Dmesg reports no issues so far. I think the issue was reported to kernel bugzilla https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210895.
Have you guys ever encountered it? Or you how some workarounds?

Regards

I've found replacing linux-lts i2c_hid.ko with https://github.com/coiby/standalone_i2c_hid/ and enabling pooling mode helps. Unfortunately, linux-lts breaks suspend.

I managed to compile the patch for kernel 5.13. It doesn't work either.
