The mounting matrix for sensors was introduced in
commit dfc57732ad38 ("iio:core: mounting matrix support")

However the device tree bindings are very terse and since this is
a widely applicable property, we need a proper binding for it
that the other bindings can reference. This will also be useful
for other operating systems and sensor engineering at large.

I think all 3D sensors should support it, the current situation
is probably that the mounting information is confined in magic
userspace components rather than using the mounting matrix, which
is not good for portability and reuse.

AFAICT there is no comments on this patch per se, just chit chat
about misc, and we have Rob's ACK.

Can it be merged?

I failed to actually look at it properly so far...

I'd also like input from Gregor as his usecase is somewhat different
and drove the sysfs docs.  They need to agree and I haven't actually
verified they do as yet!

Also for trivial comments, plural of matrix is matrices.
Isn't English weird sometimes ;)
