[PATCH] rtc: rtc-hid-sensor-time: add module alias to let the module load automatically

From: Alexander Holler
Date: Tue Jul 09 2013 - 13:31:18 EST


In order to get the module automatically loaded by hotplug mechanisms a
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is needed.

Therefor add one.

This makes it also possible to use a module name other than HID-SENSOR-2000a0
which isn't very descriptive in kernel messages.
