Change subsys/ to some name that means "not device-specific". The point is that the net and sound system-level stuff isn't composed of device-specific drivers and the other directories below linux/ do not have a bunch of device-specific drivers associated with them (kernel, fs and mm).

Maybe a better structure is needed, but moving /net alone would be a big project.
