Not a sensor chip..

You might want to add a url to the datasheet, rather than
a copypaste from it. Any description in the driver sould

Since the chip is undetectable, and used on embedded platform, I think you
should consider a "new-style" driver with .probe/remove instead.

copypaste from PCF8574 driver? :) Again, consider if the new style drivers
would me more useful for your platform.
