I could not understand your point of reordering, will you please explain
this.

There has been discussion about the proper location for this driver,
initial attempt was done in "drivers/mfd" folder but then we realized
that this driver is not exactly fitting in MFD category.
There was suggestion from Catalin Marinas [1], [2] to move it to
"drivers/power" or a more suitable place other than mfd. As I received
comments from Bartlomiej [3] and other members also (sorry I could not
produce all links as it was quite more than a year back), I feel driver
is very much SoC specific and hence decided to move it here.
