Indeed I think we should create an alias only for the supported case or
2 aliases if both are supported.

To be honest I did not find any elegant solution either. Personally I
would move the MODULE_ALIAS for compat/acpihid outside of
module_vfio_reset_handler macro, directly in the reset module. But maybe
someone will propose a better solution?
