Subject: [PATCH v2] base: soc: Handle custom soc information sysfs entries

Soc framework exposed sysfs entries are not sufficient for some
of the h/w platforms. Currently there is no interface where soc
drivers can expose further information about their SoCs via soc
framework. This change address this limitation where clients can
pass their custom entries as attribute group and soc framework
would expose them as sysfs properties.

Changes in v2:
- Address comments from Stephen Boyd about "soc_dev" clean up in error paths.

Changes in v1:
- Remove NULL initialization of "soc_attr_groups"
- Taken care of freeing "soc_attr_groups" in soc_release()
- Addressed Stephen Boyd comments on usage of "kalloc"

Nice, can we convert the existing soc drivers to use this interface
instead of the "export the device pointer" mess that they currently
have? That way we can drop that function entirely.

Thank you for the reviews.
In the current linux tree i can find these driver instances who is using
"soc_device_to_device" for populating their sysfs entries.

drivers/soc/ux500/ux500-soc-id.c: parent =
soc_device_to_device(soc_dev);
drivers/soc/tegra/fuse/fuse-tegra.c: return
soc_device_to_device(dev);
drivers/soc/amlogic/meson-gx-socinfo.c: dev =
soc_device_to_device(soc_dev);
drivers/soc/amlogic/meson-mx-socinfo.c:
dev_info(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev), "Amlogic %s %s detected\n",
drivers/soc/imx/soc-imx8.c: ret =
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev),
drivers/soc/imx/soc-imx-scu.c: ret =
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev),
drivers/soc/versatile/soc-realview.c:
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev), &realview_manf_attr);
drivers/soc/versatile/soc-realview.c:
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev), &realview_board_attr);
drivers/soc/versatile/soc-realview.c:
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev), &realview_arch_attr);
drivers/soc/versatile/soc-realview.c:
device_create_file(soc_device_to_device(soc_dev), &realview_build_attr);
drivers/soc/versatile/soc-integrator.c: dev =
soc_device_to_device(soc_dev);

These drivers can use the current proposed approach to expose their
sysfs entries.
Will try to address these and submit. But i can't able to test these
changes because i do not have these h/w's

Build testing should be sufficient.

Unfortunately we can't just drop it, because it's used on some SoCs as
the parent of all platform_devices.

But we can definitely get rid of all that uses it to create sysfs files.
