tty: hvc: hvc_opal: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

2023-11-23T19:31:08Z

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.

tty: hvc: Make hvc_remove() return no value

2023-11-23T19:31:08Z

The function hvc_remove() returns zero unconditionally. Make it return void instead to make it obvious that the caller doesn't need to do any error handling. Accordingly drop the error handling from hvc_opal_remove().

tty: Explicitly include correct DT includes

2023-07-25T18:19:05Z

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus. As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they "temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to explicitly include the correct includes.

tty: Use of_node_name_{eq,prefix} for node name comparisons

2018-12-17T15:12:17Z

Convert string compares of DT node names to use of_node_name_eq helper instead. This removes direct access to the node name pointer. For hvc, the code can also be simplified by using of_stdout pointer instead of searching again for the stdout node.
