[PATCH] pwm: mediatek: remove redundant MODULE_ALIAS entries

[sean.wang at mediatek.com]

From: Sean Wang <sean.wang@mediatek.com>

MODULE_ALIAS exports information to allow the module to be auto-loaded at
boot for the drivers registered using legacy platform registration.

However, currently the driver is always used by DT-only platform,
MODULE_ALIAS is redundant and should be removed properly.
