This looks right.

Greg provided a tag containing fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback
return void") at

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git tags/bus_remove_return_void-5.15

(see https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YPkwQwf0dUKnGA7L@xxxxxxxxx).

It would be great if this could be merged into the drm tree with the
above diff squashed into the merge commit.

Best regards
Uwe
