The MODULE_ALIAS() is redundant since the module alias is now
automatically generated from the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().

Remove the explicit alias.

No functional change intended.

This is not compatible with the Open Source workflow. Please, make sure there
is no footer in the next version.

Yes, I decided to send the patches in a way that was not the best. So I'm going to
send the patches separately for each subsystem.
