There are three compatible strings defined for the ADXL345 and ADXL346 in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/trivial-devices.txt: "adi,adxl345",
"adi,adxl346", "adi,adxl34x". Given that the last one is a fallback for the
first two I don't see a need to add the specific compatible strings to the
driver for now. If a new totally incompatible chip named ADXL347 comes out we
will need a new driver which won't be allowed to use the "adi,adxl34x"
compatible string.

FWIW, I'm the evil person who added the adxl entries to that file...

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
