   Sure no problem, looking forward to your review comments.
   Actually I am planning to add Orientation events for FXLS8471Q, for 
that is it good idea to overload existing
   IIO_ROT channel type? Also thinking of adding 4 channel modifiers i.e 
portrait up/down, landscape left/right.
   Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.
