Subject: [RFT][PATCH] regulator: max14577: Revert "regulator: max14577: Add proper module aliases strings"

This reverts commit 0da6736ecd10b45e535b100acd58df2db4c099d8.

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

  $ modinfo max14577-regulator.ko

  alias:          platform:max77836-regulator
  alias:          platform:max14577-regulator
  description:    Maxim 14577/77836 regulator driver
  alias:          platform:max77836-regulator
  alias:          platform:max14577-regulator

Cc: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@...sung.com>
Fixes: 0da6736ecd10 ("regulator: max14577: Add proper module aliases strings")

Not tested. Please test/comment.  This is an RFT also because reverted
commit said to fix autoloading issue which I even reviewed... but really
it should not be needed - alias gets duplicated.
