As this is however a staging driver (and depends on IIO, which is a
staging infrastructure), I suggest you resend the patch to staging
maintainers so that it gets applied and we can work on polishing the
driver there.

Also, what are the plans regarding moving IIO out of staging, please?
The core is out of staging as of the current cycle.

Ah, you are right, I missed that this has already happened.

Drivers are moving out whenever someone has time to take a look at each
one and clean up any loose ends.  A couple went with the last merge
window, lots more a queued up for the next one.

Generally any new drivers shouldn't go into staging but directly
into drivers/iio.

For hid sensors I'd probably prefer drivers/hid though.
There's some pretty strong moves to clasify drivers by function not
by 'bus' (which is kind of what hid is I guess?)

I do wonder if this driver would work better as an mfd type device
with the sensor specific bits each having their own module?

Honestly I've never been much of a stickler for where things are as
long as someone is happy to look after them.

Sorry for my lack of responses on this revised version, been a busy
week and it's a fairly big review to do.

Thanks,
