Looking at the source for the version of Android on my phone, I see the
drivers in with the kernel source.
My router (which is not Android-based, but Linux based) is the same. Not
x86 hardware, but it uses drivers for hardware that is readily available
on x86 systems, so the drivers are in the kernel tree.
