Merge branch 'net-platform-remove-void'
Uwe Kleine-König says: ==================== net: ethernet: Convert to platform remove callback returning void this series convert nearly all platform drivers below drivers/net/ethernet 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. There are 3 drivers I didn't convert (yet): drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw.c drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_new.c drivers/net/ethernet/ti/am65-cpsw-nuss.c These are a bit more complicated because they don't always return 0 in .remove(). Unless someone is quicker than me, I'll address them in separate patches at a later time. See commit 5c5a7680 ("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. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
