Commit Message

If a platform device's remove callback returns non-zero, the device core
emits a warning and still removes the device and calls the devm cleanup
callbacks.

So it's not save to not unregister the gpiochip because on the next request
to a GPIO the driver accesses kfree()'d memory. Also if an IRQ triggers,
the freed memory is accessed.

Instead rely on the GPIO framework to ensure that after gpiochip_remove()
all GPIOs are freed and so the corresponding IRQs are unmapped.

This is a preparation for making platform remove callbacks return void.

Changes since (implicit) v1
(Message-Id: 20220620122933.106035-1-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de):

 - Fix capitalisation of GPIO and IRQ in commit log
 - Add another "are" in the third paragraph.
 - Drop note about a potential bug in GPIO framework
   I'm not sure there is actually a bug.

Thanks to Andy Shevchenko for his feedback.

Best regards
Uwe
