Based on the discussion on the mailinglist it seems everyone agrees that this
is the preferred driver, correct?

There are a bunch of review comments, so I will wait for a v4. I plan to merge
that staging driver unless there are major issues with it.

I am not sure if I would merge those sensor drivers in staging, I'll have to
take a closer look at those once v4 is posted.
