Our policy, IIRC, has been quite the opposite: we try to put as little dependencies as possible, letting drivers build on all different kinds of configs/arches/machines. Why? It helps us keep the code in a good shape. So, unless there are any unresolable build issues with the driver, I believe we should keep it as is.
