Subject: [PATCH] mfd: cros_ec: drop unneeded MODULE_ALIAS

The MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE already creates proper alias.  Having another
MODULE_ALIAS causes the alias to be duplicated:

  $ modinfo cros_ec_dev.ko

  alias:          platform:cros-ec-dev
  srcversion:     F84A69D2156719A4F717A76
  alias:          platform:cros-ec-dev
