<content type='text'>
The driver core ignores the return value of struct bus_type::remove()
because there is only little that can be done. To simplify the quest to
make this function return void, let struct vio_driver::remove() return
void, too. All users already unconditionally return 0, this commit makes
it obvious that returning an error code is a bad idea.

Note there are two nominally different implementations for a vio bus:
one in arch/sparc/kernel/vio.c and the other in
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c. This patch only adapts the powerpc
one.

Before this patch for a device that was bound to a driver without a
remove callback vio_cmo_bus_remove(viodev) wasn't called. As the device
core still considers the device unbound after vio_bus_remove() returns
calling this unconditionally is the consistent behaviour which is
implemented here.

If hvcs_probe() succeeded dev_set_drvdata() is called with a non-NULL
value, and if hvcs_probe() failed hvcs_remove() isn't called.

So there is no way dev_get_drvdata() can return NULL in hvcs_remove() and
the check can just go away.

<title>tty_port: drop last traces of low_latency</title>

The main purpose of tty_port::low_latency was removed in commit
a9c3f68f3cd8 (tty: Fix low_latency BUG) back in 2014. It was left in
place for drivers as an optional tune knob. But only one driver has been
using it until the previous commit. So remove this misconcept
completely, given there are no users.

<title>tty: hvcs: Don't NULL tty-&gt;driver_data until hvcs_cleanup()</title>

<id>63ffcbdad738e3d1c857027789a2273df3337624</id>
<content type='text'>
The code currently NULLs tty-&gt;driver_data in hvcs_close() with the
intent of informing the next call to hvcs_open() that device needs to be
reconfigured. However, when hvcs_cleanup() is called we copy hvcsd from
tty-&gt;driver_data which was previoulsy NULLed by hvcs_close() and our
call to tty_port_put(&amp;hvcsd-&gt;port) doesn't actually do anything since
&amp;hvcsd-&gt;port ends up translating to NULL by chance. This has the side
effect that when hvcs_remove() is called we have one too many port
references preventing hvcs_destuct_port() from ever being called. This
also prevents us from reusing the /dev/hvcsX node in a future
hvcs_probe() and we can eventually run out of /dev/hvcsX devices.

Fix this by waiting to NULL tty-&gt;driver_data in hvcs_cleanup().
