Most modern ARM SoCs capable of running Linux have one or more cortex M cores, down from M1s to M4s (I have yet to see M7s). It is precisely for what you describe.

M0. I’ve never seen an SoC with an M1, which is a core specifically designed to be implemented on an FPGA.

Cortex-R is also pretty common (R5 on Zynq-7000 and R7 on UltraScale MPSoC, for example)

Indeed, brainfart, thinking too much about the Apple M1. Thanks!
