I have mixed feeling about this set will it help maintaining and 
developing new code or do the opposite. Surely misnaming as referenced 
above can happen but I think it's not too common pattern while having 
single define header put under include/ feels added burden.

Also I personally like explicit strings put into MODULE_ALIAS() since 
they are easier to grep from sources and modules.alias file when 
debugging autoloading issues. So change like below makes that debugging 
one step more labor.

-MODULE_ALIAS("platform:i2c_designware");
+MODULE_ALIAS("platform:" I2C_DESIGNWARE_NAME);
