Re: Correct location for ADC/DAC drivers

I'm in the stage of integrating some ADC and DAC drivers for the AMCC
405EZ PPC and looking for the correct location to place these drivers
in the Linux source tree. The drivers are basically character-drivers,
so my first thought is to put them in "drivers/char/adc/foo.c" or
"drivers/char/adc_foo.c". Is this a good solution?

Any suggestions welcome (could be that I missed an already existing
example).

BTW: I am aware of the hwmon subsystem, but I don't think it fits my
needs in this case.

Could you elaborate the requirements a bit more? ADC is not ADC, because
slow i2c ADCs which measure a temperature every five minutes have other
requirements than multi-megabyte-per-second-dma-driven ADCs.
