+MODULE_ALIAS("platform:" DRIVER_NAME);

Why is this module alias needed? I thought that the Amlogic was a
DT-only platform and so devices will always be registered from OF (and
the OF modalias used).

You're right, I probably copy/pasted it from another driver.

Testing without it also made me realize that the module filename (meson_gx)
isn't really useful when listed in lsmod, so I 'll respin to have mmc in
the filename so the module name also shows mmc.
