Would it be possible to make this the root device for all on-chip devices
to correctly reflect the hierarchy inside of the soc?

That matches a single machine, right? It doesn't seem very generic
that way.

I'd rather not see nonstandard attributes in a "generic" driver at
all. Maybe the
you can simply concatenate the vendor and LEVEL_2_ID into a single string
here?

On the other hand, it would make sense to fill out additional fields here.
You have already matched the name of the board from the
acpi_platform_list, so there are two strings available that could be put
into the "machine" field, and it would make sense to fill out "family" with
something that identifies it as coming from ACPI PPTT data.
