#7341: touchpad is a little off the rails in olpc3

The touchpad doesn't work very well in the olpc3 builds. Decreasing
sensitivity helps (#7211) but does not make the problem completely go
away.
To reproduce, just move the cursor around the screen for a minute or so.
Sooner or later the cursor will jump around erratically for a while,
making it very hard to click on anything. Also sometimes when you lift
your finger from the pad, the cursor jumps to some other position (making
clicking hard - you position the mouse at the right location, but then it
moves somewhere else when you are ready to click)
I understand there is a completely rewritten touchpad driver in this
stream, so that would be the obvious suspect?
