It worked for me:

 drivers/misc/Kconfig                      | 278 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 drivers/misc/Makefile                     |   1 +
 drivers/{staging/panel => misc}/panel.c   |   0
 drivers/staging/Kconfig                   |   2 -
 drivers/staging/Makefile                  |   1 -
 drivers/staging/panel/Kconfig             | 278 ------------------------------
 drivers/staging/panel/Makefile            |   1 -
 drivers/staging/panel/TODO                |   8 -
 drivers/staging/panel/lcd-panel-cgram.txt |  24 ---
 9 files changed, 279 insertions(+), 314 deletions(-)
 rename drivers/{staging/panel => misc}/panel.c (100%)
 delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/panel/Kconfig
 delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/panel/Makefile
 delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/panel/TODO
 delete mode 100644 drivers/staging/panel/lcd-panel-cgram.txt

See the lines that show the file being renamed?

How exactly did you export the patch?

For a single driver, I wouldn't worry about that, putting it in misc/ is fine.
But, you dropped the lcd-panel-cgram.txt file, perhaps you want to keep that
somewhere in Documentation/ ?
