Yes, we had long discussions about this when the soc infrastructure was merged. Right now, everything is a child of /sys/devices/platform/, basically saying that all devices are random stuff that cannot be probed. Moving it to /sys/devices/soc0 would not make the hierarchy any deeper but show much clearer which devices are part of the soc, and which ones are added as anonymous platform devices by code that does not use DT based probing. Ideally the second category is empty.
