intel_pmc_* drivers or is it enough to move it as a standalone driver for now?
If the functionality is substantially different, then I don't see a compelling, and certainly not an immediate, need to merge them. Assume for now they are to remain as separate drivers. I suggest keeping the existing name for now as well. Let's just complete the move with as little user-visible changes as possible.
The placement of the header file is a bit tricky as it is being used in drivers/clk/x86 in addition to the pmc_atom driver in drivers/platform/x86.
The best existing location would appear to be include/platform_data/
Thomas, is that acceptable to you?
Yes
arch/x86/platform/atom/pmc_atom.c -> drivers/platform/x86 arch/x86/include/asm/pmc_atom.h -> include/platform_data/
If there are enough of these, it might make sense to create:
include/platform/x86/
but I suggest we start with minimal change.
No. Make that x86 directory right away. include/platform_data is already a maze of 224 files. Start structuring it now.
