These should only exist if there are multiple C source files.
Third category:
- headers consumed only by the driver, but not driver-specific.
These are currently mostly in /sys/i386/isa/ic or combined
with headers in the first category. They should be elsewhere.
Since I don't believe in /dev, I would attempt to put them in
/sys/ic and /sys/{isa,pci,...}.
