Hey all,

Following on from my RFC series a little bit ago, I'm back again with an
attempted conversion of our SOC_FOO symbols to a more uniform ARCH_FOO.
Last time around, I had about 30 patches [0], but here I have a more
modest offering.

Patch 1 adds stubs, that ideally would be applied for v6.2-rc1 (but
after week 1, see the note in that patch for more), which would allow
for converting drivers etc over a release cycle (or more) while allowing
everything else to keep working in the meantime.

Christoph Hellwig & Damien voiced some objections in the original thread,
hopefully the gradual conversion assuages Damien's concerns about
breaking defconfigs - but I am not sure what to do about Christoph's
dislike of the ARCH_FOO stuff. A change the world approach is unlikely
to be well received & introducing "duplicate" symbols for cross-arch
vendors would surely be similarly well received? I don't mind doing it,
but my instinct is that that is a futile use of time.

The rest of this series contains v6.3 material, converting SOC_FOO
usages in arch/riscv to ARCH_FOO.

Thanks,
Conor.
