today I noticed the following warning running next-20260323:
> caam 30900000.crypto: No clock data provided for i.MX SoC

This happens when there is no matching against the soc_id.

Checking the source it turns out this patch is the cause that the SoC info
does not provide soc_id anymore.
next-20260323:

reverting this patch (2524b293a59e586afd06358d0b191ab57208a920):

soc_id is restored. Now that I write these lines I noticed that
serial_number also contained empty value which is restored with the revert.

Best regards,
