From: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit bbc126ae381cf0a27822c1f822d0aeed74cc40d9 upstream. Returning an error value in an i2c remove callback results in an error message being emitted by the i2c core, but otherwise it doesn't make a difference. The device goes away anyhow and the devm cleanups are called. In this case the remove callback even returns early without stopping the tcpm worker thread and various timers. A work scheduled on the work queue, or a firing timer after tcpci_remove() returned probably results in a use-after-free situation because the regmap and driver data were freed. So better make sure that tcpci_unregister_port() is called even if disabling the irq failed. Also emit a more specific error message instead of the i2c core's "remove failed (EIO), will be ignored" and return 0 to suppress the core's warning. This patch is (also) a preparation for making i2c remove callbacks return void.
