Subject: [PATCH] lis3: Add axes module parameter for custom axis-mapping

The axis-mapping of lis3dev device on many (rather most) HP machines
doesn't follow the standard.  When each new model appears, users need
to adjust again.  Testing this requires the rebuild of kernel, thus
it's not trivial for end-users.

This patch adds a module parameter "axes" to allow a custom
axis-mapping without patching and recompiling the kernel driver.
User can pass the parameter such as axes=3,2,1.  Also it can be
changed via sysfs.
