[PATCH 2/2] mfd: hi655x-pmic: Fix module autoload when registered via OF

From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Fri Oct 14 2016 - 11:41:27 EST


If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module
alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered
device with the corresponding module.

Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro.

Before this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/mfd/hi655x-pmic.ko | grep alias

After this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/mfd/hi655x-pmic.ko | grep alias
alias: of:N*T*Chisilicon,hi655x-pmicC*
alias: of:N*T*Chisilicon,hi655x-pmic
