pwm: Drop irrelevant error path from pwmchip_remove()
Since the PWM core uses device links (commit b2c200e3 ("pwm: Add consumer device link")) each consumer driver that requested the PWMs is already gone. If they called pwm_put() (as they should) the PWMF_REQUESTED bit is not set. If they failed (which is a bug) the PWMF_REQUESTED bit might still be set, but the driver that cared is gone, so nothing bad happens if the PWM chip goes away even if the PWMF_REQUESTED is still present. So the check can be dropped. With this change pwmchip_remove() returns always 0, so lowlevel drivers don't need to check the return code any more. Once all drivers dropped this check this function can be changed to return void.
