This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled spi: geni-qcom: 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: spi-geni-qcom-convert-to-platform-remove-callback-re.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 7f43b47f25e1ccb73f9b6c6df792d759c6bf9f8d Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 3 18:19:43 2023 +0100 spi: geni-qcom: Convert to platform remove callback returning void [ Upstream commit d0b52f6539e008a0d42bf673486bd21b7d2dc191 ] 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.
