    Input: i8042 - introduce 'notimeout' blacklist for Dell Vostro V13

    i8042 controller present in Dell Vostro V13 errorneously signals spurious
    timeouts.

    Introduce i8042.notimeout parameter for ignoring i8042-signalled timeouts
    and apply this quirk automatically for Dell Vostro V13, based on DMI match.

    In addition to that, this machine also needs to be added to nomux blacklist.
