WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in drivers/edac/layerscape_edac_mod.o
Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to all
files which have a MODULE_LICENSE().
This includes mpc85xx_edac.c and four octeon_edac-*.c files which,
although they did not produce a warning with the arm64 allmodconfig
configuration, may cause this warning with other configurations.

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 ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) 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. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().
fsl_mc_err_remove() is used as callback in two drivers. So these have to
be converted together to the void returning remove callback.

Call ghes_get_devices() to check whether ghes_edac should be used on the
platform where it is preferred over the corresponding chipset-specific
EDAC driver.
Unlike the existing edac_get_owner() check, the ghes_get_devices() check
works independent to the module_init ordering.
