The generated modalias files do not match anything.
 
Module support is still todo.  I am just now started on it.  David
Woodhouse sent a few patches, but I just merged them in without
testing.
This is my version, compile tested.
I have no particular objection to this, but would observe that it's more
normal to have the number->name mapping done in userspace by modprobe,
rather than inside the kernel.

For now I'd just added explicit aliases like 'MODULE_ALIAS("ps3:3");' to
the modules in question, because I hadn't yet worked out how to do all
the mod_devicetable stuff to pick it out of the match_id in the driver
structure.
