So what I see is that this commit added arche_combined_id[]:
   1e5dd1f8279a8 greybus: arche-platform: merge arche-apb-ctrl and 
arche-platform

That moved the arche_apb_ctrl_device_driver struct and some other
associated bits out of arche-apb-ctrl.c and into arche-platform.c.
It *kept* arche_platform_of_match[] as the of_match_table for
arche_platform_device_driver, but defined arche_combined_id[] and
declared it for modalias to indicate both drivers were implemented
in the single kernel module.

The later commit (the one you references in "Fixes") then moved
the arche_apb_ctrl_device_driver etc. back to arche-apb-ctrl.c.
That commit did *not* use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() to declare
arche_apb_ctrl_of_match[] for modalias.  And it simply kept the
(no longer correct) arche_combined_id[] table to be used by the
arche_platform_device_driver.

So your fix:
- Declares for modalias that arche_apb_ctrl_of_match[] is the
   of_match_table for arche_apb_ctrl_device_driver.
- Declares for modalias that arche_platform_of_match[] is the
   of_match_table for arche_platform_device_driver.
- Gets rid of arche_combined_id[], which is no longer used.

In short:  looks good to me.
