[PATCH v3 1/3] staging: vc04_services: Support module autoloading using MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE

VC04 has now a independent bus vchiq_bus to register its devices.
However, the module auto-loading for bcm2835-audio and bcm2835-camera
currently happens through MODULE_ALIAS() macro specified explicitly.

The correct way to auto-load a module, is when the alias is picked
out from MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). In order to get there, we need to
introduce  vchiq_device_id and add relevant entries in file2alias.c
infrastructure so that aliases can be generated. This patch targets
adding vchiq_device_id and do_vchiq_entry, in order to
generate those alias using the /script/mod/file2alias.c.

Going forward the MODULE_ALIAS() from bcm2835-camera and bcm2835-audio
will be dropped, in favour of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE being used there.

The alias format for vchiq_bus devices will be "vchiq:<dev_name>".
Adjust the vchiq_bus_uevent() to reflect that.
