I have no objections to the patch, it makes a lot of sense, but I think
the reasoning above is a bit questionable, as a lot of the other
host drivers (at least tegra, mvebu and xgene, probably more) equally support
endpoint mode and remain in the same directory.

Any suggestion to what we should do with them?
