[PATCH] synaptics: Add TouchpadOff=3 to disable pointer motion only

[Andy Lutomirski]

I have a Lenovo laptop with a trackpoint and a touchpad.  I much
prefer the trackpoint for moving the cursor, but the touchpad is
handy for two-finger scrolling.  The Windows driver allows a mode
with gestures only on the touchpad; add such a mode in Linux too.
(Leaving the touchpad fully enabled is no good; palm detection is
spotty at best.)

I'm a little surprised that this apparently can't be done in the XI2
core.  Is there a better way?
