I have the same issue on a Metabox P650-RP (re-badged Clevo), Ubuntu 16.10, kernel 4.8.0-46. Adding i8042.reset to my kernel command line fixed it for me also. I'm currently upgrading to 17.04 so I'll see if the problem persists in the new kernel.

There is no entry in /proc/bus/input/devices matching it. I installed Windows to check if it works at all, and it does. Windows identifies it as ACPI/SYN1219.
