When using devm_clk_get_prepared() instead of devm_clk_get() the clock is already returned prepared. So probe doesn't need to call clk_prepare() and at remove time the call to clk_unprepare() can be dropped. The latter makes the remove callback empty, so it can be dropped, too. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hello, the motivation for this patch is that the driver uses struct platform_driver::remove() which I plan to change the prototype of. Instead of converting the driver to the temporal .remove_new() and then back to the new .remove(), drop the remove callback completely.
