[PATCH 00/24] staging: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Hello,

this series adapts the platform drivers below drivers/staging to use the
.remove_new() callback. Compared to the traditional .remove() callback
.remove_new() returns no value. This is a good thing because the driver
core doesn't (and cannot) cope for errors during remove. The only effect
of a non-zero return value in .remove() is that the driver core emits a
warning. The device is removed anyhow and an early return from .remove()
usually yields a resource leak.

By changing the remove callback to return void driver authors cannot
reasonably assume any more that there is some kind of cleanup later.

All drivers in staging already return zero in their remove callback, so
they can be trivially converted.

The changes to the individual drivers are all orthogonal. If I need to
resend some patches because of some review feedback, I'd like to only
send the patches that actually needed changes, so please pick up the
remaining patches that don't need changing to reduce the amount of mail.

Best regards
Uwe
