[SRU OEM-B][PATCH 06/10] serdev: do not generate modaliases for controllers

[Shrirang Bagul]

From: Johan Hovold <johan at kernel.org>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769610

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.
