Hi all,

After merging the driver-core tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

drivers/gpu/drm/drm_dp_aux_bus.c:106:13: error: initialization of 'void (*)(struct device *)' from incompatible pointer type 'int (*)(struct device *)' [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
  106 |  .remove  = dp_aux_ep_remove,
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_dp_aux_bus.c:106:13: note: (near initialization for 'dp_aux_bus_type.remove')

Caused by commit

  aeb33699fc2c ("drm: Introduce the DP AUX bus")

from the drm tree interacting with commit

  fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback return void")

from the driver-core tree.

I applied the following merge fix patch.

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr at canb.auug.org.au>
Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2021 14:58:25 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] fix for "drm: Introduce the DP AUX bus"

interaction with "bus: Make remove callback return void"
