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.

video_unregister_device will release device internally. There is no need to
call video_device_release after video_unregister_device.

media Kconfig has two entries associated to V4L API:
VIDEO_DEV and VIDEO_V4L2.
On Kernel 2.6.x, there were two V4L APIs, each one with its own flag.
VIDEO_DEV were meant to:
1) enable Video4Linux and make its Kconfig options to appear;
2) it makes the Kernel build the V4L core.
while VIDEO_V4L2 where used to distinguish between drivers that
implement the newer API and drivers that implemented the former one.
With time, such meaning changed, specially after the removal of
all V4L version 1 drivers.
At the current implementation, VIDEO_DEV only does (1): it enables
the media options related to V4L, that now has:
menu "Video4Linux options"
visible if VIDEO_DEV
source "drivers/media/v4l2-core/Kconfig"
endmenu
but it doesn't affect anymore the V4L core drivers.
The rationale is that the V4L2 core has a "soft" dependency
at the I2C bus, and now requires to select a number of other
Kconfig options:
config VIDEO_V4L2
tristate
depends on (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV
select RATIONAL
select VIDEOBUF2_V4L2 if VIDEOBUF2_CORE
default (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV
In the past, merging them would be tricky, but it seems that it is now
possible to merge those symbols, in order to simplify V4L dependencies.
Let's keep VIDEO_DEV, as this one is used on some make *defconfig
configurations.

Do some adjustments at the per-vendor Kconfig, adding a comment at
the beginning in order to identify the manufacturer, and adjust
a few entries to make them look more uniform.
