<content type='text'>
Hyper-V is adding some "specialty" synthetic devices. Instead of writing
new kernel-level VMBus drivers for these devices, the devices will be
presented to user space via this existing Hyper-V generic UIO driver, so
that a user space driver can handle the device. Since these new synthetic
devices are low speed devices, they don't support monitor bits and we must
use vmbus_setevent() to enable interrupts from the host.

Query the ring buffer size from pre defined table per device
and use that value for allocating the ring buffer for that
device. Keep the size as current default which is 2 MB if
the device doesn't have any preferred ring size.

This UIO driver was used to control the PRU processors found on various
TI SoCs. It was created before the Remoteproc framework, but now with
that we have a standard way to program and manage the PRU processors.
The proper PRU Remoteproc driver should be used instead of this driver.

This driver only supported the original class of PRUSS (OMAP-L1xx /
AM17xx / AM18xx / TMS320C674x / DA8xx) but when these platforms were
switched to use Device Tree the support for DT was not added to this
driver and so it is now unused/unusable. Support for these platforms
can be added to the proper PRU Remoteproc driver if ever needed.

Remove this driver.

<title>uio: fsl_elbc_gpcm: Convert to platform remove callback returning void</title>

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.
