Negate the values reported for the accelerometer z-axis in order to
match Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/mount-matrix.txt.

Fixes: 14a213dcb004 ("ARM: dts: n900: use iio driver for accelerometer")

I would expect it to be a rotation matrix but it is not. So maybe this
should be fixed in,the driver?

The mount matrix is documented in the kernel docs [1], and this patch
implements the suggestion that the z-axis should "be negative under the
screen and positive in front of it, toward the face of the user."

On the N900, the accelerometer is mounted such that the raw z-values are
opposite to the specification in the kernel docs. The driver itself
seems to be correct, and is used on a number of other boards (such as
Motorola Droid 4), reporting expected values when used in conjuction with
mount matrices.

There is not a lot of userspace that uses accelerometer z-axis
information, hence I could not perform thorough testing for the z-values
when I submitted 14a213dcb004 ("ARM: dts: n900: use iio driver for
accelerometer"). The error became evident when Maemo Leste gained
support for face up and face down device states [2]. With the patch in
this thread, userspace reports correct face up/down information.

I hope I have not misunderstood your reply, and please let me know if I
am missing something.

Ok, I did not notice the other -1. It was mirroring before and now it
is a clear 180 deg turn on the y-axis.
