This driver is an extension to the meson-gx-socinfo driver: it 
supplements information obtained from the register with information from 
the SM_GET_CHIP_ID secure monitor call. Due to the specifics of the 
module loading order, we cannot do away with meson-gx-socinfo, as it is 
used for platform identification in some drivers. Therefore, the 
extended information is formatted as a separate driver, which is loaded 
after the secure-monitor driver.

The ability to obtain additional information depends on the support for 
the call in the secure-monitor, which can be described by an additional 
link from the amlogic,meson-gx-ao-secure node to the secure-monitor 
node, similar to how it is done for amlogic,meson-gxbb-efuse.
