Title:
  [HP Elitebook Folio 9470m] Screen rotates upside-down when laptop is
  not flat

Status in iio-sensor-proxy package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  HP Elitebook Folio 9470m.  This system is not a tablet or convertible,
  and does not have a touchscreen.

  If the laptop is sitting flat during boot, the display orientation is
  normal.

  If the laptop is not sitting flat during boot, or if it is moved out
  of flat, the display rotates and the orientation it rotates to is
  inverted upside-down.

  This happens at the login screen as well as after login.

  This laptop should really never have the screen rotate in the first
  place, as it's not a tablet or convertible, but in the event that
  rotation is happening it shouldn't be upside-down.

  
  I have locked the rotation in gnome shell and in the login screen using the 
rotation lock button in the respective system menus.  It would be nice if there 
was a system-wide setting & this didn't need to be done on a per-user basis.

  This gsettings command will also lock the gnome-shell rotation:

  gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchscreen
  orientation-lock true

  However the above key doesn't affect the login screen, which has its
  own separate rotation button in its own version of the system menu.
