Yes, but as I mentioned:
1) submitter goes last;
2) SoB lines and Author(s) should reflect actual state of the sources.
If patch has 2 SoBs I'm expecting see different names of Authors in
the source code. *Or* in some cases it's possible to explain in the
commit message why you have former SoB and for what the credit that
person(s) get.

Hmm... Thanks for pointing to this I didn't aware about such details.

But... I still insist that is not a platform data at all in both cases.

For clock I would suggest include/linux/clk/ with x86_ prefix.
For the rest I have no strong opinion except trying to avoid
platform_data wording in the path as much as possible.

As an example I could recall DMA engine subsystem where we have

include/linux/platform_data/dma-*.h

and

include/linux/dma/*.h

So, this sounds more to me as

include/linux/x86/pmc_atom.h
