- add function return values in 2 places
- use the correct function parameter name in kernel-doc comments
to avoid these kernel-doc warnings:
Warning: include/linux/sys_soc.h:25 No description found for return value of 'soc_device_register'
Warning: include/linux/sys_soc.h:37 No description found for return value of 'soc_device_to_device'
Warning: include/linux/sys_soc.h:31 function parameter 'soc_dev' not described in 'soc_device_unregister'
Warning: include/linux/sys_soc.h:31 Excess function parameter 'dev' description in 'soc_device_unregister'
