The driver is missing an OF match table (and also a platform ID match
table if non-DT is supported) so this means that module autoloading
will be broken for this driver since the platform uevent function will
report a MODALIAS=of:N*T*Cactive-semi,act8945a-charger

Matching is only working because the platform bus match function use
as a fallback the driver name.

Best regards,
Javier
