I followed the example of drivers/s390/,
per Linus' suggestion.
The other place that seemed to suggest itself was
arch/x86/drivers/, as we already have:
arch/um/drivers/
arch/sh/drivers/
arch/cris/*/drivers/

These are vendor-specific, aka "platform specific" drivers
for various x86 platforms.
> What is wrong with the current location under misc/*?
mostly that it "misc" means nothing at all...
Indeed, misc should probably be deleted for this reason...

is there an example besides lguest/x86?

+ bool "Legacy Removable Bay Support"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to handle removable bays. It will
+ electrically disable the device in the bay, and also generate
+ notifications when the bay lever is ejected or inserted.
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_VIDEO
+ bool "Video output control support"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Allows the thinkpad_acpi driver to provide an interface to control
+ the various video output ports.
+
+ This feature often won't work well, depending on ThinkPad model,
+ display state, video output devices in use, whether there is a X
+ server running, phase of the moon, and the current mood of
+ Schroedinger's cat. If you can use X.org's RandR to control
+ your ThinkPad's video output ports instead of this feature,
+ don't think twice: do it and say N here to save some memory.
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here.
+
+config THINKPAD_ACPI_HOTKEY_POLL
+ bool "Support NVRAM polling for hot keys"
+ depends on THINKPAD_ACPI
+ default y
+ ---help---
+ Some thinkpad models benefit from NVRAM polling to detect a few of
+ the hot key press events. If you know your ThinkPad model does not
+ need to do NVRAM polling to support any of the hot keys you use,
+ unselecting this option will save about 1kB of memory.
+
+ ThinkPads T40 and newer, R52 and newer, and X31 and newer are
+ unlikely to need NVRAM polling in their latest BIOS versions.
+
+ NVRAM polling can detect at most the following keys: ThinkPad/Access
+ IBM, Zoom, Switch Display (fn+F7), ThinkLight, Volume up/down/mute,
+ Brightness up/down, Display Expand (fn+F8), Hibernate (fn+F12).
+
+ If you are not sure, say Y here. The driver enables polling only if
+ it is strictly necessary to do so.
+
+config INTEL_MENLOW
+ tristate "Thermal Management driver for Intel menlow platform"
+ depends on ACPI_THERMAL
+ select THERMAL
+ ---help---
+ ACPI thermal management enhancement driver on
+ Intel Menlow platform.
+
+ If unsure, say N.
+
+config EEEPC_LAPTOP
+ tristate "Eee PC Hotkey Driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
+ depends on ACPI
+ depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE
+ depends on HWMON
+ depends on EXPERIMENTAL
+ depends on RFKILL
+ ---help---
+ This driver supports the Fn-Fx keys on Eee PC laptops.
+ It also adds the ability to switch camera/wlan on/off.
+
+ If you have an Eee PC laptop, say Y or M here.
