commit abe81f3b upstream. If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered device with the corresponding module. Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro. Before this patch: $ modinfo drivers/tty/serial/msm_serial.ko | grep alias $ After this patch: $ modinfo drivers/tty/serial/msm_serial.ko | grep alias alias: of:N*T*Cqcom,msm-uartdmC* alias: of:N*T*Cqcom,msm-uartdm alias: of:N*T*Cqcom,msm-uartC* alias: of:N*T*Cqcom,msm-uart Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javier@osg.samsung.com> Acked-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
