This part of the commit message sounded a bit confusing to me at first
because there is already an ACPI driver which handles SMO88xx devices
(dell-smo8800).  My understanding is that:

  * the purpose of this patch is to expose a richer interface (as
    provided by lis3lv02d) to these devices on some machines,

  * on whitelisted machines, dell-smo8800 and lis3lv02d can work
    simultaneously (even though dell-smo8800 effectively duplicates the
    work that lis3lv02d does).

If I got something wrong, please correct me.  If I got it right, it
might make sense to rephrase the commit message a bit so that the first
bullet point above is immediately clear to the reader.

acpi_get_object_info() allocates the returned buffer, which the caller
has to free.

You are probably well aware of this, but checkpatch prefers keeping long
log messages in one line.  I am pointing it out just in case.

How about just doing "struct i2c_board_info info = { 0 };" instead?

I tested this patch on a Vostro V131, which is not on the whitelist, so
all I got was the warning message, but to this extent, it works for me.
