<title>parisc: Make struct parisc_driver::remove() return void</title>

<id>urn:sha1:87875c1084a28364dad8cd4f9ecbfdfe0b845ad5</id>
<content type='text'>
The caller of this function (parisc_driver_remove() in
arch/parisc/kernel/drivers.c) ignores the return value, so better don't
return any value at all to not wake wrong expectations in driver authors.

The only function that could return a non-zero value before was
ipmi_parisc_remove() which returns the return value of
ipmi_si_remove_by_dev(). Make this function return void, too, as for all
other callers the value is ignored, too.

Also fold in a small checkpatch fix for:

WARNING: Unnecessary space before function pointer arguments
+	void (*remove) (struct parisc_device *dev);

<title>tpm: ibmvtpm: Avoid error message when process gets signal while waiting</title>

<content type='text'>
When rngd is run as root then lots of these types of message will appear
in the kernel log if the TPM has been configured to provide random bytes:

[ 7406.275163] tpm tpm0: tpm_transmit: tpm_recv: error -4

The issue is caused by the following call that is interrupted while
waiting for the TPM's response.

sig = wait_event_interruptible(ibmvtpm-&gt;wq, !ibmvtpm-&gt;tpm_processing_cmd);

Rather than waiting for the response in the low level driver, have it use
the polling loop in tpm_try_transmit() that uses a command's duration to
poll until a result has been returned by the TPM, thus ending when the
timeout has occurred but not responding to signals and ctrl-c anymore. To
stay in this polling loop extend tpm_ibmvtpm_status() to return
'true' for as long as the vTPM is indicated as being busy in
tpm_processing_cmd. Since the loop requires the TPM's timeouts, get them
now using tpm_get_timeouts() after setting the TPM2 version flag on the
chip.

To recreat the resolved issue start rngd like this:

sudo rngd -r /dev/hwrng -t
sudo rngd -r /dev/tpm0 -t

Way back when this driver was written the I2C framework
used to insist an ID table be defined even if the driver
did not use it in favor of ACPI/OF matching, so it was
added just to placate the hard I2C framework requirement.

This is no longer the case so we can drop the table and
also convert the driver to the new probe interface.
