Johan Hovold 2460942f51 serdev: do not generate modaliases for controllers
Serdev controllers are not bound to any drivers and it therefore makes
no sense to generate modaliases for them.

This has already been fixed separately for ACPI controllers for which
uevent errors were also being logged during probe due to the missing
ACPI companions (from which ACPI modaliases are generated).

This patch moves the modalias handling from the bus type to the client
device type. Specifically, this means that only serdev devices (a.k.a.
clients or slaves) will have have MODALIAS fields in their uevent
environments and corresponding modalias sysfs attributes.

Also add the missing static keyword for the modalias device attribute
when moving the definition.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
