[PATCH 03/52] serial: 8250: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

[PATCH 03/52] serial: 8250: 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.

[PATCH 08/52] serial: atmel: 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.

[PATCH 23/52] serial: meson: 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.

Maybe let's trim the commit msg? Or convert all drivers at once if you
want to drop long explanation...

I like the verbosity of the commit log. This way you have a chance to
understand its motivation by only looking at that single commit.

IMHO doing one commit per driver is also right: It simplifies review,
allows me to send patches to only the respective maintainers and so
annoy less, the people reviewing the changes can send a tag for the
driver change they look at only.

But I'm not religious about that and if Greg wants to squash the patches
together that's ok for me.

Best regards
Uwe

this line should be also removed.

Good catch.

@gregkh: What is the preferred way to address that? I can follow up with
a patch on top of this one (and you squash it or not), I can send a
patch that gets that does the conversion and drops the comment (and you
skip this incomplete patch when applying this series) or I can resend
the whole series in a week or so.

Best regards
Uwe

Follow-on patch is fine, I'll take this whole series in a week when I
catch up from the merge-window-backlog as I'm at the Plumbers conference
this week...
