[PATCH net-next 2/2] net: axienet: add a MODULE_ALIAS for platform instantiation

The module is built as xilinx_emac.ko while the platform driver it
registers is named xilinx_axienet.  For a device tree instantiation that
mismatch does not matter, because the OF match table supplies the
modalias udev uses to load the module.

A device registered by name from another driver has no OF node and so no
OF modalias.  It advertises platform:xilinx_axienet, which matches
nothing, and the device is created but never bound.  ptp_ocp is going to
register the AXI Ethernet MAC of the ADVA TimeCard X2 this way, as a
child platform device described by a software node.

Add the corresponding MODULE_ALIAS so name-based instantiation can
autoload the driver, and give the name a define now that it is used in
more than one place.

Tested on the X2 with a local ptp_ocp change: with this patch the module
is loaded and binds when ptp_ocp registers the device; without it the
device stays unbound until xilinx_emac is loaded by hand.
