Maybe you can explain to the list readers what it is and what it does?

If it's ixp4xx-specific, arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx might just be the best
place.  The ixp2000 microengine loader was put into arch/arm/mach-ixp2000
for mostly that reason (being ixp2000-specific), while the ethernet driver
that uses that microengine loader will live under drivers/net/.

Assuming that the license issues have all been worked out now, it'll
mostly depend on the quality of the code.  (If this is the same Intel
code that I saw a while ago, I think it'll need a fair amount of work
before it can go in.)
