If it already exists, it will be the proper place.  We do not want to
be too invasive to create folders in include/linux for every subsystem
for only the need of fsl drivers.

On the other hand, I have seen a clear need for include/linux/fsl.
The following files are all good candidates to be moved there.

  include/linux/fsl_devices.h
  include/linux/fsl-diu-fb.h
  include/linux/fsl_hypervisor.h

IMO, include/linux/stmp_device.h is just another good candidate.

Oh, today I was asked by Fabio where is the good place for ssp-regs.h
which will be shared by mxs-mmc and spi-mxs, as we are cleaning up
<mach/*> from drivers.  I told him include/linux/fsl.
