Thanks Axel

Could you also share the info what's the condition of auto-loading module.

What I am test here is change the names works.
-               .name   = "hix5hd2-i2c",
+               .name   = "i2c-hix5hd2",

Change MODULE_ALIAS("platform:hix5hd2-i2c") does not works here.
Do I make some mistake?

The driver name needs to match the platform device name.
I have no idea why you change the driver name and it still work.

In drivers/base/platform.c, the platform_uevent sends uevenet with
MODALIAS=platform:pdev->name. so the MODULE_ALIAS needs to match pdev->name.
Maybe forgot running depmod -a?

Thanks for the patch,
Also checked MODULE_ALIAS notes in Documentation/i2c/writing-clients.
