Why not try to match this a little more to the Linux directory structure:

I think this is a great idea. Grouping drivers together by function makes them much easier to find, and it's also easier to find examples when you're writing a new driver. With the current layout, you have to grep through the drivers, cpu and board hierarchies to find existing drivers similar to the one you're trying to write.
Stellar idea. The more logically drivers are grouped, the easier it will to transition to a menuconfig-based system, which would be pretty cool, don't you think?
