[PATCH] Input: psmouse - Fix a synaptics protocol detection mistake

For configurations where synaptics hardware is present but the synaptics
extensions support is not compiled in, the mouse is reprobed and a new
device is allocated on every suspend/resume.

During probe, psmouse_switch_protocol() calls psmouse_extensions() with
set_properties=1. This calls the dummy synaptics_init() which returns an
error code, instructing us not to use the synaptics extensions.

During resume, psmouse_reconnect() calls psmouse_extensions() with
set_properties=0. This caused PSMOUSE_SYNAPTICS to be returned as the
supported extensions, and as this is a different result from earlier it
then causes psmouse_reconnect() to fail and a full reprobe happens.

Fix this by tweaking the set_properties=0 codepath in psmouse_extensions()
to be more careful about offering PSMOUSE_SYNAPTICS extensions.
