The Amlogic Meson is a DT-only platform, which means the devices are
registered via OF and not using the legacy platform devices support.

So there's no need to have a MODULE_ALIAS("platform:meson-gxbb-wdt")
since the reported uevent MODALIAS to user-space will be the OF one.

Any comments about this patch? There are other two similar fixes for
watchdog drivers that were also reviewed by Guenter but never picked:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/10/14/412
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/10/14/413

Best regards,
The patches are all in my watchdog-next branch, so Wim will hopefully
pick them up for the next release.
