On my ACPI based arm64 server, if the SMMUv3 PMU is configured as module it won't be loaded automatically after booting even if the device has already been scanned and added. It's because the module lacks a platform alias, the uevent mechanism and userspace tools like udevd make use of this to find the target driver module of the device. This patch adds the missing platform alias of the module, then module will be loaded automatically if device exists. Before this patch: [root@localhost tmp]# modinfo arm_smmuv3_pmu | grep alias alias: of:N*T*Carm,smmu-v3-pmcgC* alias: of:N*T*Carm,smmu-v3-pmcg After this patch: [root@localhost tmp]# modinfo arm_smmuv3_pmu | grep alias alias: platform:arm-smmu-v3-pmcg alias: of:N*T*Carm,smmu-v3-pmcgC* alias: of:N*T*Carm,smmu-v3-pmcg Signed-off-by:
