I guess my point is that with creating more common frameworks people
will be using common code. Some examples that come to mind are clock
framework, gpiolib, dma engine, runtime PM and so on.

Then even arch specific driver code becomes generic and separated
from the arch specific code. And then the driver subsystem maintainer
can review it easier.

Tony
