Given that "NIM" is just another name for "frontend", can we
please keep the dvb/frontend/ directory?

I would suggest prefixing the frontend drivers with "fe-", and
just keeping them in the same dir as the demod drivers.
Maybe not as nice, but dead simple.

Otherwise I like your patch, it makes a lot of sense to me.

Thanks,
