Now, I should say that I distinctly remember at some point waving my
laptop around and seeing these values change ... but now they seem to
be "stuck". Maybe it's a hardware issue or something special that
WIndows does to leverage the IIO sensors?

As far as I can tell, it only worked that one one time and hasn't
since. Although your question does make me wonder *which* kernel I was
on that I experienced the values changing. Let me go back to a stock
4.4-rc5 and see.
