Agreed. Original driver was structured that way. In fact, a single matrix is
enought for this sensor: AFAIK, reference frames are the same for gyro and
accelero.
I suppose that having a DTS and sysfs attribute per type of sample /
"sub-device" ensure better userspace API consistency across drivers.
