The main purpose of this hwdb was to tag touchpads that have the physical
trackstick buttons wired to the touchpad (Lenovo Carbon X1 3rd, Lenovo *50
series). This hwdb is not required on kernels 4.0 and above, the kernel now
re-routes button presses through the trackstick's device node. Userspace does
not need to do anything.
See kernel commit cdd9dc195916ef5644cfac079094c3c1d1616e4c.
This reverts commit 001a247324b44c0e0b8fdba41a6fc66e7465b8b6.

Currently used to tag devices in the new Lenovo *50 series and the X1 Carbon
3rd. These laptops re-introduced the physical trackpoint buttons that were
missing from the *40 series but those buttons are now wired up to the
touchpad.
The touchpad now sends BTN_0, BTN_1 and BTN_2 for the trackpoint. The same
button codes were used in older touchpads that had dedicated scroll up/down
buttons. Input drivers need to work around this and thus know what they're
dealing with.
For the previous gen we introduced INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD in the kernel, but
the resulting mess showed that these per-device quirks should really live in
userspace.
The list currently includes the X1 Carbon 3rd PNPID, others will be added as
get to know which PNPID they have.
