Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: bd70528: Add MODULE_ALIAS to allow module auto loading
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2019 15:41:59 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191023124159.GA3490@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
The bd70528 watchdog driver is probed by MFD driver. Add MODULE_ALIAS
in order to allow udev to load the module when MFD sub-device cell for
watchdog is added.
Fixes: bbc88a0ec9f37 ("watchdog: bd70528: Initial support for ROHM BD70528 watchdog block")
Signed-off-by: Matti Vaittinen <matti.vaittinen@fi.rohmeurope.com>

I'm not really sure if this is a bug-fix or feature but I guess the
Fixes tag won't harm, right?
