Hi Florian

That was my aim. I did the minimum restructuring needed to make these
DSA drivers classical Linux drivers. Nothing i've done would prevent
them being merged into one later. I don't want to do such a merge now,
because that is just a distraction from the bigger picture of
reworking how probe works.
