I don't think that MPU3050 could talk to the sensors behind it directly.
It's has "I2C gate" which allows to route the I2C communication to the
chained sensors, which is done in order to reduce noise on the I2C bus
such that only one sensor is active at a time. Those chained sensors are
working good using upstream kernel drivers, the accelerometer is
particularly useful for display autorotation. Modern DEs like Gnome and
KDE are using iio-sensor-proxy library that knows how to work with the
mainline sensor drivers.

Thank you and Andy for the review, I'll prepare v2.
