The subsystem is the thing that calls
device_register. pci_register_driver() doesn't do that.

Past mistakes do not justify continuing to do it wrong.
ARM and PPC went through a huge multi year cleanup moving code out of
arch and into the proper drivers/ directories. We know this is the
correct way to work the development process.

mmu notifiers are not a subsytem, they are core libary code.
You seem to completely not understand what a subsystem is. :(

Well, hopefully Vinod will insist on following kernel norms here.
