you need to add:
MODULE_ALIAS("platform:bxt_wcove_usbc");
otherwise this won't probe() automagically.
What do you mean, Felipe? If there is a platform device named
"bxt_wcove_usbc", why it will not be probed?
IIRC default module alias is added based on file name, not
platform_driver name, so this would be
MODULE_ALIAS("platform:typec_wcove") by default... I could be wrong,
really don't remember the details of that now.
AFAIK one either needs MODULE_ALIAS or MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for platform
device autoloading. I have seen many patches along the line of "Add missing
MODULE_ALIAS", so I'd be a bit surprised if that was no longer needed.
