A note on sensors-detect
========================
There is a persistent perception that changes in this driver would have impact
on the output of sensors-detect. This is not the case. sensors-detect is an
independent application. Changes in this driver do not affect sensors-detect,
and changes in sensors-detect do not affect this driver.
