I thought the way that this works is that top level ACP driver (IE 
acp-pci.c) will have MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.  This is how that module gets 
loaded.

Then it creates platform devices based on the detected needs for the 
situation and the creation of those platform devices triggers a uevent 
which due to MODULE_ALIAS will get appropriate other platform drivers 
like this one loaded.
