OK, so the process I just used was like this:

1. Clone the linux-aarch64 repo from https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/p...ux-aarch64
2. cd into there
3. Run "makepkg -o" to fetch sources, verify checksums, and apply patches but *not* compile
4. Manually edit the offending file with @shawnanastasio's change to comment out that if block
5. Run "makepkg -e" to compile and package without re-downloading sources
6. Wait a long, long time. Like "go to bed" long
7. See a successful compile!
8. Learn about MAKEFLAGS="-j2" and slap forehead.
9. Use "pacman -U ./linux-aarch64-5.7.5-1-aarch64.tar.xz". Worry a bit when pacman says it wants to replace linux-pinebookpro with the new package.
10. Use "pacman -U ./linux-aarch64-headers-5.7.5-1-aarch64.tar.xz" to make sure my headers match my kernel.
11. Reboot
12. Enjoy buttery-smooth trackpad responsiveness and a clean dmesg output!

Thanks @mtnygard for posting the steps.

I'm still a linux novice but managed to get past Step 3 and now am stuck on Step 4.

There are a bunch of files in the working directory but I'm not sure where the file that needs to be edited resides. Do you have the path?
