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. Fixes: 1496dd413b2e ("clk: imx: imx8mp: Add pm_runtime support for power saving") Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> --- Hello, after the merge window leading to v6.10-rc1 (assuming Linus has >= 10 fingers this cycle :-) I want to switch the prototype of struct platform_driver::remove to return void. So please either merge this patch together with 1496dd413b2e, or accept me sending this patch together with the patch changing the function's prototype for inclusion to Greg's driver-core tree.
