Subject: [RFC 2/2] MAINTAINERS: add a limited ARM and ARM64 SoC entry

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2020 23:15:16 +0200

It is expected for ARM and ARM64 SoC related code to go through
sub-architecture maintainers.  Their addresses were therefore not
documented to push patch traffic through sub-architecture maintainers.

However when patches touch generic code, e.g. multi_v7_defconfig, the
patch might not be picked up by them and instead should go to the SoC
maintainers - Arnd and Olof.

Add a minimal maintainer's entry for SoC covering only Makefile, so it
will not appear on most of submissions (except new devicetree boards).
It will though serve as a documentation and reference for cases when
submitter does not know where to send his SoC-related patches.
