Description : daemon to protect disk for laptops with supported sensors

The accelerometer drivers for HP and DELL laptops are already available
in the linux kernel for a while. A daemon is required to handle the
events generated by the drivers.

This program is included in the kernel source. It will do the user-space
jobs: to park/un-park disk head when something happens, and make LEDs
blink accordingly.
