That sounds like it should use a reboot-mode driver. There is
a patchset that streamlines the reboot parameter passing that
will hopefully get merged soon, see:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260514-arm-psci-system_reset2-vendor-reboots-v22-0-28a5bde07483@oss.qualcomm.com/

If you can't fit this into PSCI reboot arguments, you can
add a custom driver here that picks the A/B update etc

You already have an fpga driver, right? Why is that not part of
its user interface?

I'm not sure what plat_get_soc_name() does, I don't see that in
the current sources, but can have multiple soc_device drivers
and use soc_device_match() in drivers to compare the ID
string from the platform with a known lists for things like
driver quirks.

If there is a hardware interface to find out the ID, just add
a driver that registers another soc_device in addition to the
SMCCC one, and soc_device_match() will attempt to match each
one separately.

Ok.
