That was my initial approach of the series, but I ended up being more
conservative as this would flip all of the existing elantech SMBUS
capable touchpads to use elan_i2c.
And I didn't want to deal with 4/5 year old laptops that suddenly broke.

So I wonder if you can restrict this default change to the recent
laptops (let's say 2018+). Maybe by looking at their FW version or
something else in the DMI?

Cheers,
Benjamin
