This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled pwm: mtk-disp: Don't check the return code of pwmchip_remove() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: pwm-mtk-disp-don-t-check-the-return-code-of-pwmchip_.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 393b6c4ff0afa2151e0d77de4182b70a789580f9 Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jul 7 18:28:27 2021 +0200 pwm: mtk-disp: Don't check the return code of pwmchip_remove() [ Upstream commit 9b7b5736ffd5da6f8f6329ebe5f1829cbcf8afae ] pwmchip_remove() returns always 0. Don't use the value to make it possible to eventually change the function to return void. Also the driver core ignores the return value of mtk_disp_pwm_remove().
