[PATCH v1 01/12] powerpc/pseries: CMM: Implement release() function for sysfs device

From: David Hildenbrand <hidden>
Date: 2019-10-31 14:29:57
Also in: linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

When unloading the module, one gets
[  548.188594] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[  548.188596] Device 'cmm0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed. See Documentation/kobject.txt.
[  548.188622] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 19308 at drivers/base/core.c:1244 .device_release+0xcc/0xf0
...

We only have on static fake device. There is nothing to do when
releasing the device (via cmm_exit).
