29ce0bca6d Documentation/process: maintainer-soc: clarify submitting patches
Patches for SoCs are expected to be picked up by SoC submaintainers.
The main SoC maintainers should be addressed only in few cases.

Rewrite the section about maintainer handling to document above
expectation.

Samsung ARM/ARM64 SoCs (except legacy S5PV210) are also expected not to

enforced and tested since few release.

425d827ef9 Documentation/process: add soc maintainer handbook
Arnd suggested that adding a maintainer handbook for the SoC "subsystem"
would be helpful in trying to bring on board maintainers for the various
new platforms cropping up in RISC-V land.

Add a document briefly describing the role of the SoC subsystem and some
basic advice for (new) platform maintainers.
