That turns out to be quite simple: - These are drivers for the vio bus, and the module aliases generated from their device ID tables have the form "vio:T<type>S<compat>". - The vio bus can exist on PowerPC and SPARC, and they have two separate (but similar) implementations. - The PowerPC implementation generates module aliases for vio devices but the SPARC implementation does not. So autoloading currently only works on PowerPC. The attached patch might fix that, though the correct fix would presumably be to merge the two implementations.
