This does seem like something that the modules code should be able to cope with - we have a reference from the driver struct to the table which you'd really expect it to be using. We already have some issues there with userspace not handling multiple modaliases terribly well IIRC.
That reference is only used for matching, while the aliases are generated from the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE macro (and elf magic).
Sure, but there's no reason we can't change that.
