[PATCH 3.18 57/60] spmi: Include OF based modalias in device uevent

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 25 2017 - 17:26:47 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d50daa2af2618dab6d21634e65a5fbcf4ae437d6 upstream.

Include the OF-based modalias in the uevent sent when registering SPMI
devices, so that user space has a chance to autoload the kernel module
for the device.
