The change looks fine, and I'd agree that this is a useful split.
BUT (there's always a but), there are a set of boards that are currently
including the e1xxxx feature that would currently be getting the e100,
and they'll no longer have it.

./bsp/common-pc/common-pc.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/fri2/fri2.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/fishriver/fishriver.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/romley/romley.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/emenlow/emenlow.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/crownbay/crownbay.scc:include features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc
./bsp/common-pc-64/common-pc-64.scc:include 
features/intel-e1xxxx/intel-e1xxxx.scc

In particular the common-pc really does want that config (for qemu).
So we should do the split, but also update all those boards to include
your new feature as part of this change.

Can you try and resend with that addition ? You don't need to built/boot,
just make the touches to the files listed above and I can take care of
the rest.
