Subject: [PATCH] rtc: rtc-hid-sensor-time: add module alias to let the module load automatically
Date: Tue,  9 Jul 2013 19:30:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1373391003-20073-1-git-send-email-holler@ahsoftware.de> (raw)

In order to get the module automatically loaded by hotplug mechanisms a
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is needed.

Therefor add one.

This makes it also possible to use a module name other than HID-SENSOR-2000a0
which isn't very descriptive in kernel messages.
