ok?

That focal change is okay after discussion with our PM.

Other than for h/i the changelog doesn't contain file path (I forgot
about it), everything else seems okay to me.

Bug description:
  We are planning to do SRU to systemd in focal, to avoid unwanted
  screen rotations on some Dell laptop models.

  [Impact]

   * This fixes unwanted rotations on certain Dell clamshell laptop
  models with accelerometer.

  [Test Plan]

   * On Dell laptops with model SKU 0A3E or 0E0E, install this package and kernel 5.13, or kernel with this patch backported:
      https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e26f023e01ef26b4138bc1099af309bdc4523d23
   * Rotate the laptop and the display should not be rotated.

  [Where problems could occur]

   * This is to add parameters for certain models in hwdb, and does not
  affect any other part of systemd.

   * This fix would only take effect with kernel 5.13 or the above patch
  backported.

  [scope]

  this is needed for all releases

  this is being fixed upstream by
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/20314

  [Other info]

   * The patch mentioned above is going to have a separated SRU for
  linux-oem-5.10 and linux-hwe-5.11 (LP: #1938143)
