  In order for the TI K3 SoC info driver to be built as a module, the
following changes have been made:
- Converted memory allocations to devm and added the remove callback
- Added necessary code to build the driver as a module

v2->v3:
dropped module conversion part of this series while other driver
dependencies on socinfo are worked out.
A dependency issue is introduced by changing subsys_initcall()
to module_platform_driver(). Some drivers using the socinfo information
probe before the socinfo driver itself and it makes their probe fail.

v3->v4:
reintegrated the module build support and added patches for udma and mdio
drivers to allow for deferred probe if socinfo hasn't probed yet.

v4->v5:
Remove the k3 udma and mdio patches from this series and sent them
individually

Sorry about another respin, but could you fix up $subject as per
git log --oneline drivers/soc/ti/k3-socinfo.c

I think you might want to use "soc: ti: k3-socinfo:"
