drivers: staging: unisys: add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE and temporary MODULE_ALIAS lines to visornic (110a66be) · Commits · 戴 / test

This patch adds an module alias and a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE to autoload the visornic driver when an appropriate device is created by the visorbus. Note, the correct way of fixing this is adding functionality to scripts/mod/file2alias.c for the visorbus bus type. Signed-off-by:
