Maybe you would get more help if you explained what SSBI might be.
Is it:

SSBI	Single Scope Background Investigation
SSBI	Species-Specific Biological Information
SSBI	Salomon Smith Barney Inc. (bank)
SSBI	Stichting Stimulering Bedrijfsmatig Imkeren

If you happen to mean "Single-Wire Serial Bus Interface" then you
should probably use the more common name "1-wire".

I would expect to find such drivers in  drivers/w1/  as used in Linux.

That makes no sense.  If in doubt, look at the organization of the
Linux tree.  There such code is in  drivers/w1/  and I see no reason
why we would have to do different.

Best regards,
