Occasionally the trackpad in my MacBookPro 8,3 stops working, spewing
 'bcm5974: bad trackpad package, length: 8'

I haven't been able to reproduce this on demand, but it's annoying when
it does happen. I'm *assuming* that it's somehow forgotten what mode
it's supposed to be in. The fix for this on suspend/resume was to switch
it back to Wellspring mode again, so let's try that...

Untested, because my trackpad seems to *know* when I'm actually running
a kernel with this patch, and doesn't ever misbehave. I've played with
removing the *normal* mode switch in bcm5974_start_traffic() but can't
get it to produce the 'bad trackpad package' message at all in that
case, so the rest function doesn't get invoked.
