The OF core adds an alias based on the OF device ID table, which is enough to have the driver autoloaded. The legacy MODULE_ALIAS macro was relevant to a pre-OF board files which manually created platform devices, this is irrelevant to the modern ARM kernels since devices are created by the OF core. Remove the unnecessary macro in order to keep the driver's code cleaner.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
