I already have patches pending, which kick lis3lv02d out of
drivers/hwmon:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jdelvare/linux-2.6/jdelvare-hwmon/

I'll get this tree merged into Linus' tree at the end of the week. Then
you will have to rebase your patches and send them again (but not to
the lm-sensors list, we do NOT want to see them there.) Thanks.
