    Subject[PATCH v2 01/22] of: device: Support loading a module with OF based modalias
    Date
    In the case of ULPI devices, we want to be able to load the
    driver before registering the device so that we don't get stuck
    in a loop waiting for the phy module to appear and failing usb
    controller probe. Currently we request the ulpi module via the
    ulpi ids, but in the DT case we might need to request it with the
    OF based modalias instead. Add a common function that allows
    anyone to request a module with the OF based modalias.
