[patch 05/57] ipmi: add MODULE_ALIAS to load ipmi_devintf withipmi_si

[Greg KH]

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Scott James Remnant <scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6c89161b10f5771ee0b51ada0fce0e8835e72ade upstream

The ipmi_devintf module contains the userspace interface for IPMI devices,
yet will not be loaded automatically with a system interface handler
driver.

Add a MODULE_ALIAS for the "platform:ipmi_si" MODALIAS exported by the
ipmi_si driver, so that userspace knows of the recommendation.
