There is one thing that I don't like about modules in a subdir is that
you can't select them well. But, not having them in a sub dir means you
don't know what modules belong to usb w/o using a find . -name Makefile
| xargs grep usb (or something else). Even then do you put something
like uaudio under sound or usb? :) (currently it's under sound)
Do you want me to bug compatible by adding a prefix for it? (like snd_
or geom_, but not i2c.)
