If autoloading of your module works, then remove it. The alias is
necessary for some cases when a device table is missing (e.g. platform
driver is matched via devicetree but not having the platform_device_id
table) or matching is done via different method (e.g. driver is matched
from MFD via devicetree compatible even though there is a
platform_device_id table).
