I have also removed all the code that thereby serves no purpose.

This was found using a static code analysis program called cppcheck

Yes, it doesn't appear to be needed. The driver used to have some kernel logs that output the min and max full scale information, but it didn't do anything else with min_full_scale.

The call to get_min_full_scales() and the function itself can also be removed.
