![]() 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.

NVEC: An NVidia compliant Embedded Controller Protocol Implementation This is an implementation of the NVEC protocol used to communicate with an embedded controller (EC) via I2C bus. The EC is an I2C master while the host processor is the I2C slave. Requests from the host processor to the EC are started by triggering a gpio line. There is no written documentation of the protocol available to the public, but the source code[1] of the published nvec reference drivers can be a guide. This driver is currently only used by the AC100 project[2], but it is likely, that other Tegra boards (not yet mainlined, if ever) also use it.
