[TOUCHPAD]: Lenovo ideapad slim 5i touchpad is disabled on boot

1. During booting it says Disabling #IRQ27 and after that touchpad doesn't work.
2. If I am moving my hand over the touchpad during booting it doesn't disable the touchpad.
3. Adding irqpoll to grub config fixes the issue but adds about 10 seconds on boot time.

I saw a similar issue after updating mkinitcpio on my IdeaPad laptop and documented a potential workaround here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/ … issues/295

There have been a few recent reports about touchpad issues with newer kernels, so there may be a kernel regression that needs to be bisected:
