In later patches, we're going to change how the inode's ctime field is
used. Switch to using accessor functions instead of raw accesses of
inode->i_ctime.

The driver core ignores the return value of struct bus_type::remove()
because there is only little that can be done. To simplify the quest to
make this function return void, let struct vio_driver::remove() return
void, too. All users already unconditionally return 0, this commit makes
it obvious that returning an error code is a bad idea.
Note there are two nominally different implementations for a vio bus:
one in arch/sparc/kernel/vio.c and the other in
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/vio.c. This patch only adapts the powerpc
one.
Before this patch for a device that was bound to a driver without a
remove callback vio_cmo_bus_remove(viodev) wasn't called. As the device
core still considers the device unbound after vio_bus_remove() returns
calling this unconditionally is the consistent behaviour which is
implemented here.

As said by Linus:
A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
Otherwise it's actively misleading.
In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
caller wants.
In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.
The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.
Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.
The renaming is done by using the command sequence:
git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'
followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

There is a potential NULL pointer dereference in case kzalloc()
fails and returns NULL.
Fix this by adding a NULL check on *session*
Also, update the function header with information about the
expected return on failure and remove unnecessary variable rc.
This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

This driver is a logical device which provides an
interface between the hypervisor and a management
partition. This interface is like a message
passing interface. This management partition
is intended to provide an alternative to HMC-based
system management.
VMC enables the Management LPAR to provide basic
logical partition functions:
- Logical Partition Configuration
- Boot, start, and stop actions for individual
partitions
- Display of partition status
- Management of virtual Ethernet
- Management of virtual Storage
- Basic system management
This driver is to be used for the POWER Virtual
Management Channel Virtual Adapter on the PowerPC
platform. It provides a character device which
allows for both request/response and async message
support through the /dev/ibmvmc node.
