There is no need to manually set the owner of a struct class, as the
registering function does it automatically, so remove all of the
explicit settings from various drivers that did so as it is unneeded.
This allows us to remove this pointer entirely from this structure going
forward.

For bus-based driver, device removal is implemented as:
1 device_remove()->
2 bus->remove()->
3 driver->remove()
Driver core needs no inform from callee(bus driver) about the
result of remove callback. In that case, commit fc7a6209d571
("bus: Make remove callback return void") forces bus_type::remove
be void-returned.
Now we have the situation that both 1 & 2 of calling chain are
void-returned, so it does not make much sense for 3(driver->remove)
to return non-void to its caller.
So the basic idea behind this change is making remove() callback of
any bus-based driver to be void-returned.
This change, for itself, is for device drivers based on acpi-bus.

flexible-array member
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The current implementation of the event queue both
wastes space using a doubly linked list and isn't super
obvious in how it behaves. This converts the queue to an
actual circular buffer. The size of the queue is a
tunable module parameter. This also fixes a few other things:
- A memory leak that occurred when the ACPI device was
removed, but the events were not freed from the queue.
- Now kfree() the oldest event from outside all locks.
- Add newline to logging messages.
- Add helper macros to calculate size of events.
- Remove unneeded lock around a check for dev_data->exist
in hangup_device().
- Remove an unneeded null event pointer check in enqueue_events().
- Correct some comments.

When copying an event to userspace failed, the event queue
lock was never released. This fixes that.

The Wilco Embedded Controller can create custom events that
are not handled as standard ACPI objects. These events can
contain information about changes in EC controlled features,
such as errors and events in the dock or display. For example,
an event is triggered if the dock is plugged into a display
incorrectly. These events are needed for telemetry and
diagnostics reasons, and for possibly alerting the user.
These events are triggered by the EC with an ACPI Notify(0x90),
and then the BIOS reads the event buffer from EC RAM via an
ACPI method. When the OS receives these events via ACPI,
it passes them along to this driver. The events are put into
a queue which can be read by a userspace daemon via a char device
that implements read() and poll(). The event queue acts as a
circular buffer of size 64, so if there are no userspace consumers
the kernel will not run out of memory. The char device will appear at
/dev/wilco_event{n}, where n is some small non-negative integer,
starting from 0. Standard ACPI events such as the battery getting
plugged/unplugged can also come through this path, but they are
dealt with via other paths, and are ignored here.
To test, you can tail the binary data with
$ cat /dev/wilco_event0 | hexdump -ve '1/1 "%x\n"'
and then create an event by plugging/unplugging the battery.
