I agree.  Useful subdirectories I can see currently are:

 - usb
 - net
 - bluetooth
 - block
 - vnc
 
after looking at the code again I would also include the various scsi
files in the block directoty, they are pretty closely related and will
get even more interwinded with things like SG_IO passthrough for virtio.
