This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled pwm: atmel-hlcdc: Convert to platform remove callback returning void to the 6.1-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-atmel-hlcdc-convert-to-platform-remove-callback-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 11b398a39657829da4adbc1d579bf5237d75938a Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 3 19:54:16 2023 +0100 pwm: atmel-hlcdc: Convert to platform remove callback returning void [ Upstream commit 5fce94170ad8a67b839f3dd8e8e8a87039ba0251 ] The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant.
