From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@xxxxxxxxx> remove_device() and add_device() are not related to ACPI APIs, it does not make sense to return acpi_status for both functions. Current implementation of add_device() always AE_OK, thus the return value checking for add_device() always return false for ACPI_FAILURE(status). This patch makes add_device() to be void and remove the unnecessary return value checking. remove_proc_entry() won't fail, thus change remove_device() to be void.
