[PATCH] ACPI / device_sysfs: Prefer "compatible" modalias

From: Kai-Heng Feng
Date: Fri Jan 22 2021 - 07:54:41 EST


Commit 8765c5ba1949 ("ACPI / scan: Rework modalias creation when
"compatible" is present") may create two "MODALIAS=" in uevent file if
conditions are met.

This breaks systemd-udevd, which assumes each "key" in uevent file is
unique. The internal implementation of systemd-udevd overwrites the
first MODALIAS with the second one, so its kmod rule doesn't load driver
for the first MODALIAS.

So if both ACPI modalias and OF modalias are present, use the latter
one to ensure there's only one MODALIAS.
