Right, I understood that. mach-omap2 is not suitable for full fledged
drivers.

Couple of suggestions:

drivers/platform/omap/avs?
drivers/misc/omap/avs?

I prefer first one.

Yes, I remember that rule, but that's not stopping us to create a fwk,
may be others will rise once they see the framework and contribute
if their h/w architecture requirements are not addressed?
