The function can not fail, and no one checks the current return value,
so just mark it as a void function so no one gets confused.

We're trying to entirely nuke this function here, see the kerneldoc for
drm_debugfs_create_files(). Only user left is tegra, and we call the
"remove all debugfs files" and the ->early_unregister hooks all from the
same place. So this can all be garbage collected. It's mildly annoying
because we'd need to move the kfree from ->early_unregister into ->destroy
callbacks, because connectors are unregister before we throw away all the
debugfs files in drm_dev_unregister(). But imo that's cleaner anway.

Up for that?

Cheers, Daniel

I would love to see this function gone, it can also make things a lot
simpler from the point of view of creating the debugfs files as well, as
no dentries will need to be saved.

> Up for that?

Sure, I can do that.  I have a much larger patch messing with
drm_debugfs_create_files() that I want you all to be in a good mood for
when I submit it (it touches all drivers at once), so I might as well
clean this up first :)

Give me a week, I'm supposed to be writing my slides for a conference
now, instead I'm procrastinating by writing debugfs cleanup patches, I
need to stop...

thanks,

Oh don't worry, we've had a pile of cleanup todo tasks in this area
since a long time. You doing them all is going to make me a happy
camper :-)

Only thing to be aware of is that we have a bit a habit of dragging
good contributors of refactoring/cleanup/fundamental work like this
into the drm fold for good. You might get stuck ...

Hah...

Anyway, what tree/branch should I do this work on?  I see drm-next, is
that the one to use, but it doesn't seem to have the other patches you
all said you accepted from me for this debugfs cleanup already.

linux-next is usually a good starting point, drm stuff is a bit too much
spread around multiple trees. The only caveat is that some trees (drm-misc
and drm-intel) keep merging during the feature freeze (after -rc6) and
merge window, to collect patches for the merge-window+1. In those cases it
might be better to rebase on top of drm-tip:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip

It's kinda like linux-next, but for drm. Only downside is that not all drm
trees participate in that integration tree.

Simpelst is probably to just base on linux-next and dump everything that
hasn't landed after -rc2 onto dri-devel again.

Cheers, Daniel
