Merge tag 'soc-attr-updates-5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sudeep.holla/linux into arm/drivers
SoC attributes update for v5.9
1. Addition of ARM SMCCC ARCH_SOC_ID support
2. Usage of the custom soc attribute groups already supported in the
infrastucture instead of device_create_file which eliminates the need
for any cleanup when soc is unregistered
3. Minor clean up switching to use standard DEVICE_ATTR_RO() instead of
direct __ATTR
