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 these drivers from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

The function returns zero unconditionally. Change it to return void instead
which simplifies its callers as error handing becomes unnecessary.

A couple of drivers had a "generic documentation" section that
would trigger a "can't understand" message from W=1 compiles.
Fix by using correct DOC: tags in the generic sections.
Fixed Warnings:

drivers/net/ethernet/cadence/macb_pci.c:3: warning: missing initial short description on line:

Before this change of_get_phy_mode() returned an enum,
phy_interface_t. On error, -ENODEV etc, is returned. If the result of
the function is stored in a variable of type phy_interface_t, and the
compiler has decided to represent this as an unsigned int, comparision
with -ENODEV etc, is a signed vs unsigned comparision.
Fix this problem by changing the API. Make the function return an
error, or 0 on success, and pass a pointer, of type phy_interface_t,
where the phy mode should be stored.
v2:
Return with *interface set to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA on error.
Add error checks to all users of of_get_phy_mode()
Fixup a few reverse christmas tree errors
Fixup a few slightly malformed reverse christmas trees
v3:
Fix 0-day reported errors.

alias information is not created so module autoloading won't work.

Some platforms have special bank registers which might be used to
select the correct clock or the right mode for Media Indepent Interface
controllers. Sometimes, it is also required to activate vcc regulators
in the right order to supply the ethernet controller at the right time.
This patch is an architecture refactoring of the arc-emac device driver.
It adds a new software design which allows to add specific platform
glue layer. Each platform has now its own module which performs custom
initialization and remove for the target and then calls to the
core driver.
