e70140ba0d Get rid of 'remove_new' relic from platform driver struct
The continual trickle of small conversion patches is grating on me, and
is really not helping.  Just get rid of the 'remove_new' member
function, which is just an alias for the plain 'remove', and had a
comment to that effect:

  /*
   * .remove_new() is a relic from a prototype conversion of .remove().
   * New drivers are supposed to implement .remove(). Once all drivers are
   * converted to not use .remove_new any more, it will be dropped.
   */

This was just a tree-wide 'sed' script that replaced '.remove_new' with
'.remove', with some care taken to turn a subsequent tab into two tabs
to make things line up.

I did do some minimal manual whitespace adjustment for places that used
spaces to line things up.

Then I just removed the old (sic) .remove_new member function, and this
is the end result.  No more unnecessary conversion noise.

519e5cc529 backlight: mt6370-backlight: Convert to platform remove callback returning void
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

e7647de058 video: backlight: mt6370: Add MediaTek MT6370 support
MediaTek MT6370 is a SubPMIC consisting of a single cell battery charger
with ADC monitoring, RGB LEDs, dual channel flashlight, WLED backlight
driver, display bias voltage supply, one general purpose LDO, and the
USB Type-C & PD controller complies with the latest USB Type-C and PD
standards.

Add support for the MediaTek MT6370 backlight driver.
It controls 4 channels of 8 series WLEDs in
2048 (only for MT6370/MT6371) / 16384 (only for MT6372)
current steps (30 mA) in exponential or linear mapping curves.
