There exist tilt switches that simply report their tilt-state via some
gpios.

The number and orientation of their axes can vary depending on the switch
used and the build of the device. Also two or more one-axis switches
could be combined to provide multi-dimensional orientation.

One example of a device using such a switch is the family of Qisda
ebook readers, where the switch provides information about the
landscape / portrait orientation of the device. The example in
Documentation/input/gpio-tilt.txt documents exactly this one-axis device.
