[PATCH net-next 00/19] net: mdio: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[PATCH net-next 00/19] net: mdio: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[Uwe Kleine-König]

Hello,

this series convert all platform drivers below drivers/net/mdio to
use remove_new. The motivation is to get rid of an integer return code
that is (mostly) ignored by the platform driver core and error prone on
the driver side.

See commit 5c5a7680e67b ("platform: Provide a remove callback that
returns no value") for an extended explanation and the eventual goal.

There are no interdependencies between the patches. As there are still
quite a few drivers to convert, I'm happy about every patch that makes
it in. So even if there is a merge conflict with one patch until you
apply, please apply the remainder of this series anyhow.

Best regards
Uwe

[PATCH net-next 01/19] net: mdio: aspeed: 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() is renamed to .remove().

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