Interestingly enough drivers/misc was my first choice for all the vexpress stuff, but it wasn't received well... Anyway, the SPC driver as it is now seem to be a "power management system driver". Maybe a relevant directory would be in place? Wouldn't PSCI belong there as well? (there are two psci.c files in arch/arm and arch/arm64, surprisingly similar ones ;-) The bottom line is: today it is not an MFD driver.
