dmaengine: uniphier-mdmac: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

Browse Source 
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().

There is an error path that has the above mentioned problem. This patch
only adds a more drastic error message. To properly fix it,
dmaengine_terminate_sync() must be known to have succeeded (or that it's
safe to not call it as other drivers seem to assume).
