Please CC me in general on these patches :-) I was planning to also discuss ordering of module aliases entries, since we can have several modules providing the same modalias (this gets even worse on "Enterprise Linux" distributions, where we might have third party modules providing additional aliases). I guess this ordering is probably better than just a numeric sort, which was the original idea.
