[PATCH net-next 0/9] net: freescale: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

Hello,

this patch set converts the platform drivers below
drivers/net/ethernet/freescale to the .remove_new() callback. Compared to the
traditional .remove() this one returns void. This is a good thing because the
driver core (mostly) ignores the return value and still removes the device
binding. This is part of a bigger effort to convert all 2000+ platform
drivers to this new callback to eventually change .remove() itself to
return void.

The first two patches here are preparation, the following patches
actually convert the drivers.

Best regards
Uwe
