[RFC v1 PATCH 1/3] drivers: soc: add support for soc_device_match returning -EPROBE_DEFER

["Alice Guo (OSS)" <alice.guo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Alice Guo <alice.guo@xxxxxxx>

In i.MX8M boards, the registration of SoC device is later than caam
driver which needs it. Caam driver needs soc_device_match to provide
-EPROBE_DEFER when no SoC device is registered and no
early_soc_dev_attr.
