If it is too specific, some other similar drivers won't perfectly match thus they will be placed again under dt-bindings/soc. I was thinking about name "socinfo", but on the other hand why limiting to SoC? I think there are many more devices which provide some kind of read-only hardware information (type, revision, product ID, model etc), therefore - hwinfo. Thanks for the feedback.
