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.

Changes in v3:
- sort out a rake of spelling/grammar bits spotted by Randy, apart from
  the one noted as a suggestion
- drop the refs for document filepaths

Thanks, I've applied this in the soc/newsoc branch of the soc tree
now, which is where I'm already queuing new platforms.

Having cited this document for the first time, it came to mind that I
never mentioned putting the submaintainer trees into linux-next. Should
I send a follow-up patch for that, or do you think that that isn't
needed?

Cheers,
Conor.
