Subject: [PATCH 083/182] soc: Introduce drivers/soc place-holder for SOC
 specific drivers

Based on earlier thread "https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/10/7/662" and
discussion at Kernel Summit'2013, it was agreed to create
'driver/soc' for drivers which are quite SOC specific.

Further discussion on the subject is in response to
the earlier version of the patch is here:
