[PATCH 7/7] net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Fix module autoload for OF registration

From: Javier Martinez Canillas
Date: Mon Oct 17 2016 - 10:07:15 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/net/dsa/bcm_sf2.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:brcm-sf2

After this patch:

$ modinfo drivers/net/dsa/bcm_sf2.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:brcm-sf2
alias: of:N*T*Cbrcm,bcm7445-switch-v4.0C*
alias: of:N*T*Cbrcm,bcm7445-switch-v4.0
