This adds device tree bindings for the MPU-3050 gyroscope. Since it is the first set of bindings for a gyroscope, the folder for it is also created.Is this not similar to mpu-6050 and other Invsense devices: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/imu/inv_mpu6050.txtI guess it was a precursor. The MPU-3050 is a pure gyroscope, the MPU-6050 combines the gyro with an accelerometer. That is why it is classified as an IMU rather than a gyro.
I did wonder if the 3050 was a subset of the 6050 but the register maps are clearly totally different. Hence any sort of unified driver would be a mess on any OS. Probably fair to keep the binding docs separate (though in sync where it makes sense!) Jonathan
