[PATCH] module: fix mutiple defined issue

This patch fixes mutiple defined issue to MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE

The issue could be induced when some framework which includes two
more sub drivers, is built as one moudle because those sub drivers
could have their own MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE.

And 'struct of_device_id' isn't needed to be determined by type
argument because the definition of 'of_device_id' should be fixed.
So this patch makes 'of_devce_id' definition to be fixed and
only its instance name to be defined by type.
