It all depends on what the subsystem maintainer wants to do.

Sometimes we just do a "add a new driver to the real spot" that goes
through the subsystem tree, and when that is accepted, I delete the
driver in the staging tree.  This is most often in networking.

Or you can wait until -rc1 and do a move in your tree, or just tell me
to do the move in my tree with an ack, and I can handle it all.

Whatever is easier for you is fine with me, I'm flexible :)
