The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

The hardware for gma500 is different from the rest, as it uses stolen
framebuffer memory that is not available via PCI BAR. The regular PCI
removal helper cannot detect the framebuffer, while the non-PCI helper
misses possible conflicting VGA devices (i.e., a framebuffer or text
console).
Gma500 therefore calls both helpers to catch all cases. It's confusing
as it implies that there's something about the PCI device that requires
ownership management. The relationship between the PCI device and the
VGA devices is non-obvious. At worst, readers might assume that calling
two functions for clearing aperture ownership is a bug in the driver.
Hence, move the PCI removal helper's code for VGA functionality into
a separate function and call this function from gma500. Documents the
purpose of each call to aperture helpers. The change contains comments
and example code form the discussion at [1].

Instead of calling aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() to remove the
conflicting devices, just call to aperture_detach_devices() to detach
the device that matches the same PCI BAR / aperture range. Since the
former is just a wrapper of the latter plus a sysfb_disable() call,
and now that's done in this function but only for the primary devices.
This fixes a regression introduced by commit ee7a69aa38d8 ("fbdev:
Disable sysfb device registration when removing conflicting FBs"),
where we remove the sysfb when loading a driver for an unrelated pci
device, resulting in the user losing their efifb console or similar.
Note that in practice this only is a problem with the nvidia blob,
because that's the only gpu driver people might install which does not
come with an fbdev driver of it's own. For everyone else the real gpu
driver will restore a working console.
Also note that in the referenced bug there's confusion that this same
bug also happens on amdgpu. But that was just another amdgpu specific
regression, which just happened to happen at roughly the same time and
with the same user-observable symptoms. That bug is fixed now, see
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=216331#c15
Note that we should not have any such issues on non-pci multi-gpu
issues, because I could only find two such cases:
- SoC with some external panel over spi or similar. These panel
drivers do not use drm_aperture_remove_conflicting_framebuffers(),
so no problem.
- vga+mga, which is a direct console driver and entirely bypasses all
this.
For the above reasons the cc: stable is just notionally, this patch
will need a backport and that's up to nvidia if they care enough.
v2:
- Explain a bit better why other multi-gpu that aren't pci shouldn't
have any issues with making all this fully pci specific.
v3
- polish commit message (Javier)
v4:
- Fix commit message style (i.e., commit 1234 ("..."))
- fix Daniel's S-o-b address
v5:
- add back an S-o-b tag with Daniel's Intel address

With the preceding patches it's become defunct. Also I'm about to add
a different boolean argument, so it's better to keep the confusion
down to the absolute minimum.
v2: Since the hypervfb patch got droppped (it's only a pci device for
gen1 vm, not for gen2) there is one leftover user in an actual driver
left to touch.
v4:
- fixes to commit message
- fix Daniel's S-o-b address
v5:
- add back an S-o-b tag with Daniel's Intel address

A few reasons for this:
- It's really the only one where this matters. I tried looking around,
and I didn't find any non-pci vga-compatible controllers for x86
(since that's the only platform where we had this until a few
patches ago), where a driver participating in the aperture claim
dance would interfere.
- I also don't expect that any future bus anytime soon will
not just look like pci towards the OS, that's been the case for like
25+ years by now for practically everything (even non non-x86).
- Also it's a bit funny if we have one part of the vga removal in the
pci function, and the other in the generic one.
v2: Rebase.
v4:
- fix Daniel's S-o-b address
v5:
- add back an S-o-b tag with Daniel's Intel address

Otherwise it's a bit silly, and we might throw out the driver for the
screen the user is actually looking at. I haven't found a bug report
for this case yet, but we did get bug reports for the analog case
where we're throwing out the efifb driver.
v2: Flip the check around to make it clear it's a special case for
kicking out the vgacon driver only (Thomas)

Since vgaarb has been promoted to be a core piece of the pci subsystem
we don't have to open code random guesses anymore, we actually know
this in a platform agnostic way, and there's no need for an x86
specific hack. See also commit 1d38fe6ee6a8 ("PCI/VGA: Move vgaarb to
drivers/pci")
This should not result in any functional change, and the non-x86
multi-gpu pci systems are probably rare enough to not matter (I don't
know of any tbh). But it's a nice cleanup, so let's do it.
There's been a few questions on previous iterations on dri-devel and
irc:
- fb_is_primary_device() seems to be yet another implementation of
this theme, and at least on x86 it checks for both
vga_default_device OR rom shadowing. There shouldn't ever be a case
where rom shadowing gives any additional hints about the boot vga
device, but if there is then the default vga selection in vgaarb
should probably be fixed. And not special-case checks replicated all
over.
- Thomas also brought up that on most !x86 systems
fb_is_primary_device() returns 0, except on sparc/parisc. But these
2 special cases are about platform specific devices and not pci, so
shouldn't have any interactions.
- Furthermore fb_is_primary_device() is a bit a red herring since it's
only used to select the right fbdev driver for fbcon, and not for
the fw handover dance which the aperture helpers handle. At least
for x86 we might want to look into unifying them, but that's a
separate thing.
v2: Extend commit message trying to summarize various discussions.
v4:
- make the test for the primary device easier to read (Javier)
- fix commit message style (i.e., commit 1234 ("..."))
- fix Daniel's S-o-b address
v5:
- add back an S-o-b tag with Daniel's Intel address

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.
So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.
