We do not talk here at all about drivers. This is independent and not
really related.

Anyway, independent features mostly have separate drivers. Each separate
driver should be located in respective subsystem. But again - we do not
talk here about drivers at all, so please do not bring them into the
problem. It will make everything more complicated...
