When apply_acpi_orientation() fails, st_accel_common_probe() will fall back to iio_read_mount_matrix(), which checks for a mount-matrix device property and if that is not set falls back to the identity matrix. But when a sensor has no ACPI companion fwnode, or when the ACPI fwnode does not have a "_ONT" method apply_acpi_orientation() was returning 0, causing iio_read_mount_matrix() to never get called resulting in an invalid mount_matrix: [root@fedora ~]# cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/mount_matrix (null), (null), (null); (null), (null), (null); (null), (null), (null) Fix this by making apply_acpi_orientation() always return an error when it did not set the mount_matrix.
