In case of designware based drivers you already did the clean up nicely. Next would be, like Arnd is sugesting, to do the same to the others. If they are all self-contained I suggest we leave them as they are and in the future if a endpoint variant driver comes up for any of them, we can suggest to add a folder with the vendor or SoC name in order to follow the rule. What do you think?
