My preferred location would be within the watchdog driver, since it's really the same registers. You can turn on the watchdog driver as built-in in the defconfig. While it's not ideal that you can end up without a restart function if the driver does not get loaded, I would still prefer that over having the driver in the mach-sunxi directory. An alternative would be to move the restart code into drivers/power/reset. > diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-sunxi/sunxi.c b/arch/arm/mach-sunxi/sunxi.c > deleted file mode 100644 > index 460b5a4962ef..000000000000 > --- a/arch/arm/mach-sunxi/sunxi.c Instead of splitting up this file, I think it would be better to reduce the number of special hacks required per machine. Note that for arm64 we require platforms not to have any code outside of the drivers directory, and I'd like to get to the same situation for much of arch/arm/mach-* as well.
