Returning early from .remove() with an error code still results in the
driver unbinding the device. So the driver core ignores the returned error
code and the resources that were not freed are never catched up. In
combination with devm this also often results in use-after-free bugs.

If runtime resume fails, it's still important to free all resources, so
don't return with an error code, but emit an error message and continue
freeing acquired stuff.

This prepares changing cpsw_remove() to return void.

Fixes: ed3525eda4c4 ("net: ethernet: ti: introduce cpsw switchdev based driver part 1 - dual-emac")
