USB is "messy" in that we have hardware that acts both as a host and a
gadget controller.  Don't use our directory scheme as an example to do
anything :)

Do what is right for the PCI subsystem, if a driver is too "complex"
that it needs lots of different files, make a subdirectory to make it
easier to manage.  That's all we did for USB, nothing really complex.

good luck!
