I'd even suggest its own subfolder under MFD, if you already know
that there will likely be more than these 4 files.

Though nothing else has a subdirectory in MFD right now so
maybe Lee should approve of that first...

The obvious upside to using MFD is that it has an active maintainer
and patches get reviewed and merged swiftly, whereas
drivers/platform is usually managed by SoC and x86 tip maintainers
and what not.
