I've really been pushing to organize our documentation by the audience
it is addressing, rather than by the developers who write it.  So
driver-api documentation is best put into ... the driver-api book,
Documentation/driver-api.

My plan, that I haven't yet acted on, is to create Documentation/devices
for device-specific docs that don't go anywhere else, then move a lot of
stuff into it.  Much like what was done with Documentation/arch.  But
anything that can go into the existing audience-focused manuals should
go there.

Thanks,

jon
