Yeah, about the microcode, shouldn't it be under kernel/cpu/? My train of thought is: because it is cpu-related functionality, it logically belongs there.
Or do we rather apply the shallow tree logic of
arch/x86/microcode arch/x86/events ...
?
I have to say, arch/x86/kernel/cpu/ is kinda long and hard to remember so the shallow structure should be nicer on the eyes and the brain :)
