Thanks!
We need to think about the future of these misc input drivers:
misc/bma150.c
misc/cma3000*
misc/mma8450.c
The first has a partial (or maybe complete) support in
iio/accel/bma180.c and the last seems to be possible to be
supported by iio/accel/mma8452.c with some slight adjustments.
It's not only because I have OCD and want to sort every driver
in the right pigeon-hole... the iio-sensor-proxy GNOME daemon
bugzilla/github has been spamming me with complaints about
problems caused by the accelerometer-as-input drivers.
It would be nice to at least compartmentalize the problems
into one subsystem. Terminating misc/bma150.c has been
mentioned.
Yours,
Linus Walleij

I we have replacements in drivers/iio I'd be happy to cut these out of
drivers/input.
Thanks.
