Subject: [PATCH 4.9 075/134] misc: eeprom_93xx46: Add module alias to avoid breaking support for non device tree users

From: Aswath Govindraju <a-govindraju@...com>

[ Upstream commit 4540b9fbd8ebb21bb3735796d300a1589ee5fbf2 ]

Module alias "spi:93xx46" is used by non device tree users like
drivers/misc/eeprom/digsy_mtc_eeprom.c  and removing it will
break support for them.

Fix this by adding back the module alias "spi:93xx46".
