I think sysdev should be related to chipsets and soc functionality.   
It seems odd to me that the Kconfig for these things lives in arch/ 
powerpc/platforms

Just a flat directory.

I don't really care that much about all this.  If someone wants to  
clean it up feel free to, but not sure what the value of that is.   
However, if you are going to fix the Kconfig issue I just mentioned  
as well.
