Right. There are cases where we have to do this eventually because the
files are duplicated, e.g. at91/avr32, pxa/mmp, s3c/s5p/exynos, or
sa1100/pxa.

For the majority of cases where it's desirable to move the header file
closer to the driver, it's not actually a prerequisite to do this
in order to get a complete multiplatform setup.
