Mouse and Trackpad Settings only shows usb mouse:
CX 2.4G Receiver Mouse
CX 2.4G Receiver Consumer Control
I believe Wacom driver was originally installed for touchscreen control.

OK, so you’re running Xfce and have updated to the latest kernel which was released to Arch this morning (UTC). This is one possible culprit.
What do the last 100 or so lines of /var/log/pacman.log show?
I think this is the pacman log snippet from the “offending” update.

Have you got the LTS kernel installed? If not, install it, and then switch to it to see if you still have the problem.
Yes, I installed LTS and the problem persists. There’s a 24 second pause during boot which corresponds to this entry:

r0hopper’s suggestion to install a LTS kernel led me to a solution for my system. I was able to install Linux ArchOS 5.10.145-1-lts510 from the AUR repository which re-enabled trackpad and touchscreen support for my AMD Lenovo Flex 5 system.
Additional testing of other distributions, revealed that Garuda with the 5.15.69 kernel does not support either, while the Manjaro 5.15.65 kernel does support the pad and touchscreen.
The EndeavourOS 5.15.71LTS and rolling 5.19 kernels do not. I don’t find this particular kernel and laptop mentioned on bugzilla, but there is a history of similar issues with other kernel versions and laptops like Lenovo, Dell, and Asus.
