I started wondering... would this be possible to fix all m25p80 users
instead? Make them always specify modalias as "m25p80" and then
provide platform_data if needed?

Has anyone checked in how many places we use "wrong" (or should I say
"weird") modaliases? I guess some would need to grep kernel for all
possible names.
