The package gets pulled in mostly because GNOME Shell recommends it. If you
don't use it, you can consider removing it.

The package is useful on machines that have an orientation sensor. This sensor
is commonly seen on hybrid laptops that can also be used as a tablet.

Recently, on debian-user, an Acer user reported similar issue. This is known to
be a kernel bug. I'm not sure if this fix will be backported to the 4.9 tree.
And if that fix can fix your bug in particular.
