      net: ethernet: altera: Convert to platform remove callback returning void · d0b0245b
      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      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.
