+Driver for tilt-switches connected via GPIOs
+============================================
+
+Generic driver to read data from tilt switches connected via gpios.
+Orientation can be provided by one or more than one tilt switches,
+i.e. each tilt switch providing one axis, and the number of axes
+is also not limited.
+
+
+Data structures
+---------------
+
+The array of struct gpio in the gpios field is used to list the gpios
+that represent the current tilt state.
+
+The array of struct gpio_tilt_axis describes the axes that are reported
+to the input system. The values set therein are used for the
+input_set_abs_params calls needed to init the axes.
+
+The array of struct gpio_tilt_state maps gpio states to the corresponding
+values to report. The gpio state is represented as a bitfield where the
+bit-index corresponds to the index of the gpio in the struct gpio array.
+In the same manner the values stored in the axes array correspond to
+the elements of the gpio_tilt_axis-array.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+Example configuration for a single TS1003 tilt switch that rotates around
+one axis in 4 steps and emits the current tilt via two GPIOs::
+
