Philipp Zabel acbef7b766 modpost: fix module autoloading for OF devices with generic compatible property
Since the wildcard at the end of OF module aliases is gone, autoloading
of modules that don't match a device's last (most generic) compatible
value fails.

For example the CODA960 VPU on i.MX6Q has the SoC specific compatible
"fsl,imx6q-vpu" and the generic compatible "cnm,coda960".  Since the
driver currently only works with knowledge about the SoC specific
integration, it doesn't list "cnm,cod960" in the module device table.

This results in the device compatible
"of:NvpuT<NULL>Cfsl,imx6q-vpuCcnm,coda960" not matching the module alias
"of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu" anymore, whereas before commit 2f632369ab
("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases") it
matched the module alias "of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu*".

This patch adds two module aliases for each compatible, one without the
wildcard and one with "C*" appended.

  $ modinfo coda | grep imx6q
  alias:          of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpuC*
  alias:          of:N*T*Cfsl,imx6q-vpu

Fixes: 2f632369ab ("modpost: don't add a trailing wildcard for OF module aliases")
