[PATCH 00/11] misc: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Hello,

this series converts all drivers below drivers/misc to struct
platform_driver::remove_new(). See commit 5c5a7680e67b ("platform:
Provide a remove callback that returns no value") for an extended
explanation and the eventual goal.

All conversations are trivial, because their .remove() callbacks
returned zero unconditionally.

There are no interdependencies between these patches, so they could be
picked up individually. But I'd hope that Greg or Arnd picks them up all
together.

Best regards
Uwe

[PATCH 01/11] misc: atmel-ssc: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[Uwe Kleine-König]

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.

To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.
