The proper thing to do is:

Move all that cruft including arch/x86/platform/atom/pmc_atom.c into
drivers/platform/x86. There is nothing architecture specific in these
files. It's pure peripheral driver enablement. So drivers/platform/x86 is
the proper location for this. Please discuss this with Darren Hart (cc'ed).
