Hello Jacek,

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/leds//leds-netxbig.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:leds-netxbig
After this patch:
$ modinfo drivers/leds//leds-netxbig.ko | grep alias
alias: platform:leds-netxbig
alias: of:N*T*Clacie,netxbig-ledsC*
