This cleanup is really something which Intel should have been doing
itself, but they have not done that, so now Kate has stepped up to
do this.

Figuring out if there is a better home for each of these drivers
really falls outside of the scope of this. If Intel and specifically
Sujith Thomas, the maintainer for that driver who is in the Cc,
believe that drivers/thermal/intel is a better place then they
can submit a patch for this themselves.

If Intel does that right away, then this patch can be dropped from
Kate's patch-set. Otherwise this can be moved a second time once
someone from Intel gets around to it.

Regards,

Hans
