Ah, bah,
I see you have actually already more or less done this!
http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2009-October/026840.html
"I2C glue layer for lis3lv02d STMicroelectronics digital accelerometer"

The main thing you forgot to do with this patch was to CC the maintainer
of the driver (AKA me) ;-)

Anyway, this version is _very_ close to the one from Samu. It has just
all the basics, really clean! Samu has already added some nifty things
(like changing the axis conversion, support for suspend...). So it
should _really_ easy to converge :-) As Samu's patch is already in
Andrew's queue, I think it's simpler to leave it as it, and just to keep
my request to you, Kalhan, to check that it works for your hardware as
well.

See you,
Eric
PS: in a previous iteration, you had fixed the rate reading function for
the 8 bits version of the hardware. Would you mind sending this as a
independent patch, or just letting me "rip off" your fix?
