But that's not how auto-loading should work once you have a real bus.

The module alias should be automatically picked out of the
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro that you should be using for this driver,
you should never have to manually create MODULE_ALIAS() lines.

That's a bad hold-over because the platform driver subsystem can not
handle module aliases on it's own, let's not copy that bad pattern here
as well please.
