- This driver provides support for the LIS3LV02Dx accelerometer. In

- "Mobile Data Protection System 3D" or "3D DriveGuard" feature. On such
- systems the driver should load automatically (via ACPI). The
- accelerometer might also be found in other systems, connected via SPI
- or I2C. The accelerometer data is readable via
- /sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d.
