I'm wondering what happens when Compat or ACPI string is NULL.

MODULE_ALIAS("vfio-reset:" NULL)

Would the kernel like it? 

I'd rather create an alias only when the string is not NULL. Given
this is a macro, I believe it won't work. 

Can you think of any other way in the code to create the alias?
