[PATCH v3 1/5] libnvdimm: stop requiring a driver ->remove() method

From: Dan Williams <hidden>
Date: 2016-05-18 20:57:00
Also in: lkml, nvdimm
Subsystem: libnvdimm: non-volatile memory device subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Dan Williams, Vishal Verma, Dave Jiang, Ira Weiny, Linus Torvalds

The dax_pmem driver was implementing an empty ->remove() method to
satisfy the nvdimm bus driver that unconditionally calls ->remove().
Teach the core bus driver to check if ->remove() is NULL to remove that
requirement.
