The driver core ignores the return value of struct bus_type::remove() because there is only little that can be done. To simplify the quest to make this function return void, let struct vme_driver::remove return void, too. There is only a single vme driver and it already returns 0 unconditionally in .remove(). Also fix the bus remove function to always return 0.
