In drivers/tty/serial/arc_uart.c, arc_serial_remove always returns 0,
instead of calling uart_remove_one_port to remove uart port from serial

a port added using uart_add_one_port should be removed during
de-registration.
Is there a reason for this behavior?
Did you test the code to see if that function will ever be called?
I would like to reformulate the question: Suppose arc_serial_remove is
never called. Then I would like to know how the driver de-registration
is organized since the UART port is never removed?
