Subject: [PATCH] pwm: samsung: Use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() to include OF modalias

If the pwm-samsung driver is built as a module, modalias information is
not filled so the module is not autoloaded. Use the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
macro to export the OF device ID so the module contains that information.

I think many other Maxim/S[25]M drivers for Samsung boards may also be
affected... Probably they should also be updated.

Yeah, I detected these since I'm preparing a series to reduce the delta
between exynos_defconfig and multi_v7_defconfig. And found these issues
since current multi_v7 policy is to build as much as possible as a module.

I think is unfortunate how many drivers are not providing proper module
aliases information and so building them as a module is less useful since
user-space can't associate the module with the modalias uevents to autoload.

Anyway, I'll take a look for other drivers and see if I can post similar
patches but now at least all the peripherals in the Exynos5 Chromebooks
are working when their drivers are built as a module.
