This function should be registered for devices that need to execute some non-acpi related action in order to be safely removed. If this function returns zero, the acpi core can continue with removing the device. Make acpi_bus_remove call the device-specific prepare_remove callback before removing the device. If prepare_remove fails, the removal is aborted.
