hp_accel: axis conversion for hp compaq 8710w



I have a laptop HP Compaq 8710W, I compiled into my kernel the LIS3LV02DL
and HP_ACCEL module drivers.  While loading it cannot recognize the laptop
model, so i am sending the necessary information to update the database of
axis orientations.

>When the laptop is horizontal the position reported is about 0 for X and Y
>and a positive value for Z
Yes, it is about 0,0,1000, the actual reading says: (-17,-26,1018);

> If the left side is elevated, X increases (becomes positive)
Yes, X goes toward to positive 1000.

>If the front side (where the touchpad is) is elevated, Y decreases (becomes negative)
No, Y goes toward to positive 1000.

>If the laptop is put upside-down, Z becomes negative
Yes, the laptop on a table Z gives 1000, and if upsidedown the Z reads
-1000.

So in few words the Y axis is inverted.
