Thanks for the commit description, it's much better, than original
one.

yes, it looks so on the first glance, but in MPU-6050 datasheet there
is also following information:
7.8 Three-Axis MEMS Accelerometer with 16-bit ADCs and Signal
Conditioning
When the device is placed on a flat surface, it will measure
0g on the X- and Y-axes and +1g on the Z-axis.
So sensors reports positive acceleration values for Z-axis, when
the gravity points to Z-minus. I see the same on device. positive
values are returned, when screen and IC point upwards (not the center
for gravity).
In device tree mount-matrix documentation [3] there is
users would likely expect a value of 9.81 m/s^2 upwards along the (z)
axis, i.e. out of the screen when the device is held with its screen
flat on the planets surface.
According to that, it looks like Z-axis here has to be inverted.
It applies to other axes as well. And because of that I came from (only Y-axis is inverted)
x' = -y
y' = x
z' = z
to inverted solution (Y-axis is kept, but X and Z are inverted).
x' = y
y' = -x
z' = -z
probably should put this information into commit description.

x' = 0 * x + 1 * y + 0 * z = y
y' = -1 * x + 1 * y + 0 * z = -x
z' = 0 * z + 0 * y + 1 * z = z
your description says, that only Y-axis is inverted, but this matrix,
imho, inverts original X axis as it was in original description.
