This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio: accel: bmc150: Fix bma222 scale unit
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-next branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: accel: bmc150: Fix bma222 scale unit
According to sysfs-bus-iio documentation the unit for accelerometer
values after applying scale/offset should be m/s^2, not g, which explains
why the scale values for the other variants in bmc150-accel do not match
exactly the values given in the datasheet.
To get the correct values, we need to multiply the BMA222 scale values
by g = 9.80665 m/s^2.
