None of the current drivers go below 1Hz so not quite the same.
lis3l02dq (accelerometer) does the match against a list, but it
is done numerically rather than via string matches as would be needed
here.

Then the application is ignoring the interface spec that says it must read _available files if they are there.
This way the rounding behaviour is left to userspace and what the application prefers rather
than in kernel actually making it the most flexible option.

Agreed. I'll check with Barry Song (writer of other exising driver) before changing it.

Agreed, but my point stands. The two columns cannot both be true.
If one has a range 0.7 gauss then one cannot have a gain of 1620 counts per milli g without
a lot more accurate adc. There simply aren't enough bits.
