Sensors responding with 0x3B to WHO_AM_I only have one data register per direction, thus returning a signed byte from the position which is occupied by the MSB in sensors responding with 0x3A.

We support both kind of sensors by checking for the sensor type on init and defining appropriate data-access routines and sensor limits (for the joystick) depending on what we find.

As pointed out by Eric, there's no need to jump through hoops to obtain
a signed 16-bit number from a signed 8-bit number.
This patch is good for -mm

Note also that this patch is only about 8 vs 16 bit data, so the axis orientation for HP notebooks still has to be fixed in a separate patch, but at least now I should be able to check it out properly.

Giuseppe,

you may prefer sending this to the kernel mailing list rather than the git list. But we can tell you the patch is formatted as a proper git patch ;)

Cheers, Michael

I know, I'm terribly sorry for the spamming I did. Fingers automatically went for 'git@vger' instead of 'linux-kernel@vger' ... I'm so much more used to sending patches to this list that it goes on automatically 8-/

I'll try not to repeat the mistake in the future 8-)
