Originally drivers/platform was supposed to be used for platform specific
code. Not that I have control over it, but I really dislike that more and
more hwmon drivers end up there.

At least hwmon is in good company - I see drivers for various other subsystems
there as well. I just wonder if that is such a good idea. That entire directory
is bypassing subsystem maintainer reviews.
