Subject: [PATCH 4/5] 8250_men_mcb: drop unneeded MODULE_ALIAS

From: Jose Javier Rodriguez Barbarin <dev-josejavier.rodriguez@...gon.com>

The MODULE_ALIAS() is redundant since the module alias is now
automatically generated from the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().

Remove the explicit alias.

No functional change intended.

Fixes: 1f4ea4838b13 ("mcb: Add missing modpost build support")
