The kernel already exposes accelerometer, gyroscope and magenotmeter readings
via sysfs if properly configured.
For screen orientation I think we can manage with only reading the accel bits
as seen here (there's a link to a test app there)

Android seems to only be using polling and raw accel readings from the
kernel and not offloading the task to the MPU6050 firmware.
