Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the driver registration macro so that the
driver core can create the module symlink in sysfs for built-in drivers,
and fixup all callers.
The Rust platform adapter is updated to pass the module name through to
the new parameter.
Tested on qemu with:
- x86 defconfig + CONFIG_RUST
- arm64 defconfig + CONFIG_RUST + CONFIG_CORESIGHT stuff
Examples after this patch:
/sys/bus/platform/drivers/...
coresight-itnoc/module -> coresight_tnoc
coresight-static-tpdm/module -> coresight_tpdm
coresight-catu-platform/module -> coresight_catu
serial8250/module -> 8250
acpi-ged/module -> acpi
vmclock/module -> ptp_vmclock
