looks like (since 2019) there is a strong suggestion for having a soc node.

See Krzysztof's mail in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/6320e4f3-e737-4787-8a72-7bd314ba883c@kernel.org/
that references
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-bindings.rst [0]

So I guess we should probably follow that - at least for new socs for now.
