After double confirm from Lenovo, looks like they mixed up with
touchpads on X240/X240s.

For now only one user reported this LEN0035 doesn't work on SMBus mode.
module parameter can be a workaround.
Maybe some touchpads with software top buttons are working well on
SMBus. Let's keep eyes on this issue for now.
