Bjorn Andersson 9aebf4de22 base: soc: Add serial_number attribute to soc
Add new attribute named "serial_number" as a standard interface for
user space to acquire the serial number of the device.

For ST-Ericsson SoCs this is exposed by the cryptically named "soc_id"
attribute, but this provides a human readable standardized name for this
property.

Geert Uytterhoeven da65a1589d base: soc: Provide a dummy implementation of soc_device_match()
Provide a dummy implementation of soc_device_match(), to allow compiling
drivers that may be used on SoCs both with and without CONFIG_SOC_BUS,
and for compile testing.

Arnd Bergmann c97db7cc77 base: soc: Introduce soc_device_match() interface
We keep running into cases where device drivers want to know the exact
version of the a SoC they are currently running on. In the past, this has
usually been done through a vendor specific API that can be called by a
driver, or by directly accessing some kind of version register that is
not part of the device itself but that belongs to a global register area
of the chip.

Common reasons for doing this include:

- A machine is not using devicetree or similar for passing data about
  on-chip devices, but just announces their presence using boot-time
  platform devices, and the machine code itself does not care about the
  revision.

- There is existing firmware or boot loaders with existing DT binaries
  with generic compatible strings that do not identify the particular
  revision of each device, but the driver knows which SoC revisions
  include which part.

- A prerelease version of a chip has some quirks and we are using the same
  version of the bootloader and the DT blob on both the prerelease and the
  final version. An update of the DT binding seems inappropriate because
  that would involve maintaining multiple copies of the dts and/or
  bootloader.

This patch introduces the soc_device_match() interface that is meant to
work like of_match_node() but instead of identifying the version of a
device, it identifies the SoC itself using a vendor-agnostic interface.

Unlike of_match_node(), we do not do an exact string compare but instead
use glob_match() to allow wildcards in strings.

Lee Jones 74d1d82cda drivers/base: add bus for System-on-Chip devices
Traditionally, any System-on-Chip based platform creates a flat list
of platform_devices directly under /sys/devices/platform.

In order to give these some better structure, this introduces a new
bus type for soc_devices that are registered with the new
soc_device_register() function.  All devices that are on the same
chip should then be registered as child devices of the soc device.

The soc bus also exports a few standardised device attributes which
allow user space to query the specific type of soc.
