Add ACCEL_LOCATION=base property for Dell clamshell models

[Yao Wei]

We are planning to do SRU to systemd in focal, to avoid unwanted screen rotations on some Dell laptop models.

[Impact]

 * This fixes unwanted rotations on certain Dell clamshell laptop models with accelerometer.

[Test Plan]

 * On Dell laptops with model SKU 0A3E or 0E0E, install this package and kernel 5.13, or kernel with this patch backported:
    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e26f023e01ef26b4138bc1099af309bdc4523d23
 * Rotate the laptop and the display should not be rotated.

[Where problems could occur]

 * This is to add parameters for certain models in hwdb, and does not affect any other part of systemd.

 * This fix would only take effect with kernel 5.13 or the above patch backported.

[scope]

this is needed for all releases

this is being fixed upstream by https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/20314

[Other info]

 * The patch mentioned above is going to have a separated SRU for linux-oem-5.10 and linux-hwe-5.11 (LP: #1938143)

For hirsute, what about existing users, should the patch retain the old matches? Like this:

> For hirsute, what about existing users, should the patch retain the old matches? Like this:

The old matches might match the same model name but with different form factor, although we are already trying to avoid that confusion by matching chassis type.

Also hirsute kernel is also going to backport the sku patch.

[Dan Streetman (ddstreet)]

With any SRU, it's important not to break existing users, so we can't rely on users upgrading the kernel along with systemd; it needs to continue to work without breaking if they upgrade systemd, but choose not to upgrade the kernel.

In focal since it's only adding new entries, there should be no breakage, and in impish since it's not released yet we don't need to worry about any 'existing' users, but in hirsute it does appear we need to keep the current entries, and just add the new sku-based entries as well, unless there's a specific reason that the existing entry lines should be removed in hirsute (i.e. if the existing lines actually *cause* a problem, instead of simply not covering all hardware).

That hirsute change is okay after discussion with our PM.

Other than for h/i the changelog doesn't contain file path (I forgot about it), everything else seems okay to me.

When will we upload the changes to -proposed?

i'll upload this week, so hopefully it can be released next week. The focal point release is this week, so review of the upload may be delayed, but hopefully not much.

We found that Dell Latitude 7420 is not actually fixed, and may cause Impish to have regression due to the removal of the product name modalias.

ok, well i guess we have to revert your patch and respin all the releases then.

please, next time, test your change before things get into -proposed.

this was marked fix-released for f/h just due to the tooling matching the bug number; this was actually reverted as shown in the changelogs posted in the above comments. I'll just correct f/h to indicate this is wontfix, and a new bug will or has been opened to fix this correctly.
