2023-05-28	usb: octeon-hcd: Convert to platform remove callback returning void	Uwe Kleine-König	1	-4/+2
	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 ignored (apart from emitting a warning) 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. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant.

2022-06-21	staging: octeon-usb: move driver out of staging	Artur Bujdoso	1	-0/+3740
	The Octeon usb driver has been in staging for a long time and used in Ubiquiti routers for a while now. It's been built and then tested on real hardware with several usb devices and it is proven to be stable and ready to be moved to its proper place in the kernel tree. Move it to drivers/usb/host and adjust its Makefile, Kconfig and defconfig dependencies. Many thanks to the developers who made it happen.
