Subject: [PATCH] mv643xx_eth: Define module alias for platform device

The mv643xx_eth driver can be loaded as a platform device, as is done by
various Orion (ARM) based devices.  The driver needs to define a module
alias for the platform driver so udev will load it automatically.
Tested with Debian on a QNAP TS-209.
