[PATCH 35/44] tty: let tty_unregister_driver return void

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that noone checks the return value, switch the return type of
tty_unregister_driver to void. We can do that as we always return zero.

Generally, drivers are not allowed to call tty_unregister_driver while
there are open devices.
