Since commit fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback return
void") forces bus_type::remove be void-returned, it doesn't
make much sense for any bus based driver implementing remove
callbalk to return non-void to its caller.

This change is for hyperv bus based drivers.

This is wrong. You are introducing a NULL pointer dereference.

This comment is no longer needed in the new world.

But, are you sure you're modifying the correct piece of code?

hv_pci_remove is not a hook in the base bus type. It is used in struct
hv_driver.

The same comment applies to all other modifications.

Thanks,
Wei.
