[PATCH 2/2] mailbox: sti: Fix module autoload for OF registration
From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Wed Oct 19 2016 - 23:34:24 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/mailbox/mailbox-sti.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:mailbox-sti
After this patch:
$ modinfo drivers/mailbox/mailbox-sti.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:mailbox-sti
alias: of:N*T*Cst,stih407-mailboxC*
alias: of:N*T*Cst,stih407-mailbox
