Subject: [PATCH 0/4] iio: hid-sensor: add module alias for autoload

Hello,

I'm not sure if it was by intention that none of the hid-sensor drivers
were loaded automatically. But I assume it was not by intention.

Therefor I've added a module alias to every hid-sensor driver by adding
a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.

This has another benefit: it makes it possible to use a normale driver name.

Therefor I've changed all driver names to KBUILD_MODNAME instead of
HID-SENSOR-2000xx as the later isn't very descriptive when starring at
kernel messages.

Regards,

Alexander Holler
