The Exynos PPMU drivers have been located in drivers/devfreq/exynos
as devfreq drivers have been the only users of PPMU. There
are developers trying to design common PPMU frameworks, including
Chanwoo, it is not yet submitted.

Because other Exynos5 SoCs have their bus/memif PPMU defined in
drivers/devfreq/exynos, adding another ont in another directory
seems not appropriate.
