Here is what I see if I run modinfo on the module:

dtor@dtor-ws:~/kernel/work$ modinfo
drivers/input/touchscreen/edt-ft5x06.ko
filename:
/home/dtor/kernel/work/drivers/input/touchscreen/edt-ft5x06.ko
license:        GPL
description:    EDT FT5x06 I2C Touchscreen Driver
author:         Simon Budig <simon.budig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
alias:          i2c:edt-ft5x06
alias:          of:N*T*Cedt,edt-ft5406*
alias:          of:N*T*Cedt,edt-ft5306*
alias:          of:N*T*Cedt,edt-ft5206*
depends:        i2c-core
intree:         Y
vermagic:       3.17.0+ SMP preempt mod_unload 

As you can see we already have what I consider proper modaliases for the
driver. Why don't they work? Is it because modprobe doe snot know how to
handle OF-style modaliases or device's uevents are missing OF data in
them?

Thanks.
