driver core: add helper macro for platform_driver_probe() boilerplate

For simple modules that contain a single platform_driver without any
additional setup code then ends up being a block of duplicated
boilerplate.  This patch adds a new macro,
module_platform_driver_probe(), which replaces the
module_init()/module_exit() registrations with template functions.

This macro use the same idea of module_platform_driver().

This macro is useful to stop the misuse of module_platform_driver() for
removing the platform_driver_probe() boilerplate.
