SysFS interface for the accelerometer #2
Description
Can you patch the kernel (possibly in the mr1 branch) so that you can access the accelerometer data through sysfs? I need that for the autorotate python script.
This already happens in my laptop: the accelerometer is both usable as a joystick (it's /dev/input/js0) and through sysfs:

"position" output this: (18,-162,990) → (x,y,z)
I read those values in the script and decide the screen orientation.
