Did you see that I adapted ipmi_si_platform.c below? That is an instance
of "Make [ipmi_si_remove_by_dev] return void, too, as for all other
callers the value is ignored, too." (In ipmi_si_platform.c the return
value is used in a struct platform_driver::remove function. The value
returned there is ignored, see commit
e5e1c209788138f33ca6558bf9f572f6904f486d.)

Best regards
Uwe
