Guenter Roeck dd285ad737 hwmon: (pmbus) Simplify remove functions
Since devm_kzalloc() is now used to allocate driver memory, the client
driver remove function has no purpose other than to call pmbus_do_remove().
This means we can get rid of it by redefining pmbus_do_remove() to use the
same prototype, and pointing to it directly.

Guenter Roeck 8b313ca7f1 hwmon: (pmbus) Convert pmbus drivers to use devm_kzalloc
Marginally less code and eliminate the possibility of memory leaks.

Axel Lin f0967eea80 hwmon: convert drivers/hwmon/* to use module_i2c_driver()
This patch converts the drivers in drivers/hwmon/* to use the
module_i2c_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit simpler.

Guenter Roeck 866cf12a0e hwmon: (pmbus) Don't return errors from driver remove functions
Driver remove functions have an error return value, but rarely return an error
in practice. If a driver does return an error from its remove function, the
driver won't be unloaded and is expected to stay alive.

pmbus_do_remove() is defined as returning an int, but always returns 0 (no
error). Calling code passes that return value on to high level driver
remove functions, but does not evaluate it and removes driver data even if
pmbus_do_remove() returned an error (which it in practice never does). Even if
this code could never cause a real problem, it is nevertheless conceptually
wrong.

To reduce confusion and simplify the code, change pmbus_do_remove() to be a void
function, and have PMBus client drivers always return zero in their driver
remove functions.

Jean Delvare f020b007d5 hwmon: (ucd9000/ucd9200) Optimize array walk
Rewrite the loop walking the id array during probe. The new code is
better adapted to a null-terminated array, and is also clearer and
more efficient than the original.

Guenter Roeck 9d2ecfb768 hwmon: (pmbus) Move PMBus drivers to drivers/hwmon/pmbus
Since the number of PMBus drivers is getting large, move them into
directory drivers/hwmon/pmbus to improve readability and scalability.
