Thank you for raising this valid concern. We've closely monitored GPD's development plans and currently see no indication of EC functionality expansion beyond thermal sensors in the foreseeable future. Given this observation, we believe placing the driver in hwmon remains appropriate for now. That said, we fully respect your maintainer perspective on future-proofing. If you feel strongly that platform/x86 would be a safer long-term home despite the current scope, we're happy to move the driver there immediately. We're committed to finding the most sustainable solution for upstream.
As hwmon maintainer, I feel strongly (since you used the word) that moving the driver (or any hwmon driver, for that matter) out of hwmon space would be a bad idea, but I won't prevent you from doing it either. It means less work for me, after all. Guenter
