patch to add upper of touchpad into exclusion zones

Hi there,

I'm using a ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5th gen. I use both TrackPoint and touchpad, and
the cursor move around randomly sometime when using TrackPoint. I found out
that I frequently put my right thumb finger near TrackPoint buttons and upper
edge of touchpad[1], but current palm detecion are not handle this. I tested a
simple patch to add upper of touchpad into exclusion zones and it works. Since
this only happens with laptops have TrackPoint buttons, how do you think about
implement such a feature like this?

I'm not a native speaker. Please forgive me for my bad grammar.
