  • The I2C core always reports a MODALIAS of the form i2c: even if the
    device was registered via OF, this means that exporting the OF device ID
    table device aliases in the module is not needed. But in order to change
    how the core reports modaliases to user-space, it's better to export it.

    Before this patch:

    $ modinfo drivers/hwmon/ltc4151.ko | grep alias
    alias: i2c:ltc4151

    After this patch:

    $ modinfo drivers/hwmon/ltc4151.ko | grep alias
    alias: i2c:ltc4151
    alias: of:N*T*Clltc,ltc4151C*
    alias: of:N*T*Clltc,ltc4151
