OK. I followed the above instructions and eventually managed to install
the recommended firmware and kernel. Upon rebooting there were several
console errors:
[ 1.096562] Couldn't get size: 0x800000000000000e
[ 1.700597] psmouse serio1: elantech: elantech_send_cmd query 0x02 failed.
[ 1.700620] psmouse serio1: elantech: failed to query capabilities.
Eventually the system booted. The USB mouse didn't work but the laptop's
touch pad still functioned. Wireless network support appeared to be
fine. I did not experience the problems that triggered this bug report.

I then reverted to my previous configuration to resolve errors at boot
time and restore USB mouse support. (As I mentioned this is my main
production machine and I need it to make a living with so it has to work
properly.)
Current output of 'uname -a':

So I am now back to running the same versions as before I attempted the
latest kernel and firmware drivers.
HOWEVER... The issue is now back, with the 1.1.7.3 firmware!!

So while the 5.2.0 kernel with the latest firmware drivers seemed to
have resolved the issue (but introduces a lot of problems related to a
manual install of same) I now have the problem with the same versions
that previously worked OK.
I'm not sure where to go from here. I came close to wrecking the PC with
which I make a living and I'm not comfortable with the risk of hosing it
in an attempt to try out different development builds. Reverting to the
previous configuration took quite a bit of effort and I'm now worse off
then before this experiment.
Suggestions on how to proceed are welcome!!
