Hello Jonathan, Mark,
I am not very familiar with how much the kernel would like to keep 'probing id' consistent. I perfectly understand the value of doing this (maintain ID compatibility) but I also see increase confusion in maintaining half in a way and half in another.
I personally think that we should drop the '-press' thing for all the devices since they all are single-chip (meaning that the name used identify univocally that is a pressure sensor).
If you think that compatibility is more important here, I think the patch is fine but this should be done in the i2c part as well so that it's at least congruent withing the driver.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Denis
