firmware: smccc: Support optional Arm SMCCC SOC_ID name

Browse source

Issue Number 1.6 of the Arm SMC Calling Convention introduces an optional
SOC_ID name string.  If implemented, point the 'machine' field of the SoC
Device Attributes at this string so that it will appear under
/sys/bus/soc/devices/soc0/machine.

On Arm SMC compliant SoCs, this will allow things like 'lscpu' to
eventually get a SoC provider model name from there rather than each
tool/utility needing to get a possibly inconsistent, obsolete, or incorrect
model/machine name from its own hardcoded model/machine name table.
