Subject: [PATCH 01/75] platform: prefix MODALIAS with "platform:"
From: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@...y.org>
Prefix platform modalias strings with "platform:", which
modprobe config to blacklist alias resolving if userspace
configures it.
Send uevents for all platform devices.
Add MODULE_ALIAS's to: pxa2xx_pcmcia, ds1742 and pcspkr to trigger
module autoloading by userspace.
$ modinfo pcspkr
alias: platform:pcspkr
license: GPL
description: PC Speaker beeper driver
...
$ modprobe -n -v platform:pcspkr
