	Driver remove functions have an error return value, but rarely return an error in practice. If a driver does return an error from its remove function, the driver won't be unloaded and is expected to stay alive. pmbus_do_remove() is defined as returning an int, but always returns 0 (no error). Calling code passes that return value on to high level driver remove functions, but does not evaluate it and removes driver data even if pmbus_do_remove() returned an error (which it in practice never does). Even if this code could never cause a real problem, it is nevertheless conceptually wrong. To reduce confusion and simplify the code, change pmbus_do_remove() to be a void function, and have PMBus client drivers always return zero in their driver remove functions.

2011-09-06	hwmon: (ucd9000/ucd9200) Optimize array walk	Jean Delvare
	Rewrite the loop walking the id array during probe. The new code is better adapted to a null-terminated array, and is also clearer and more efficient than the original.

2011-07-28	hwmon: (pmbus) Move PMBus drivers to drivers/hwmon/pmbus	Guenter Roeck
	Since the number of PMBus drivers is getting large, move them into directory drivers/hwmon/pmbus to improve readability and scalability. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <guenter.roeck@ericsson.com> Reviewed-by: Robert Coulson <robert.coulson@ericsson.com>
