The SMCCC firmware driver now creates the arm-smccc platform device and
instantiates the CCA RSI auxiliary devices once the RSI ABI is discovered.
The arm64-specific arm-cca-dev platform device stub is therefore no longer

CCA Realm guests [1]. Removing it without a replacement would break that
detection and would also leave userspace depending on kernel device-model
details.
