Thanks for the feedback, the s-Par drivers have 3 include files in the
 include directory in drivers/staging/unisys/include. The patch currently
 moves 2 of them, and the third will be moved when the other drivers
 get out of staging. When I did the move, I thought one directory with
 three files would be cleaner than just adding three files to include. I
 will change that.

The driver has been in staging for 4 years with significant rework during
that period of time. Throughout that time, we have had input from several
different engineers, including Dan Carpenter, Jes Sorenson, and Greg KH.
In October, I requested a formal review from the community and after the
review had completed, Greg gave us the okay to move them out of staging.

Okay, I'll redo the patchset to show the explicit add of the files to
 the drivers directory.

Thanks,
David Kershner
