wifi: ath9k: Convert to platform remove callback returning void

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().

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

wifi: ath9k: fix printk specifier

Smatch reports:

ath_pci_probe() warn: argument 4 to %lx specifier is cast from pointer
ath_ahb_probe() warn: argument 4 to %lx specifier is cast from pointer

Fix it by modifying %lx to %p in the printk format string.

Note that with this change, the pointer address will be printed as a
hashed value by default. This is appropriate because the kernel
should not leak kernel pointers to user space in an informational
message. If someone wants to see the real address for debugging
purposes, this can be achieved with the no_hash_pointers kernel option.

The print function dev_err() is redundant because

Eliminate the follow coccicheck warning:

# 9503a1fc 14-Mar-2022 Minghao Chi <chi.minghao@zte.com.cn>

ath9k: Use platform_get_irq() to get the interrupt

It is not recommened to use platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_IRQ)
for requesting IRQ's resources any more, as they can be not ready yet in
case of DT-booting.

platform_get_irq() instead is a recommended way for getting IRQ even if
it was not retrieved earlier.

It also makes code simpler because we're getting "int" value right away
and no conversion from resource to int is required.

headers: separate linux/mod_devicetable.h from linux/platform_device.h

At over 4000 #includes, <linux/platform_device.h> is the 9th most
#included header file in the Linux kernel. It does not need
<linux/mod_devicetable.h>, so drop that header and explicitly add
<linux/mod_devicetable.h> to source files that need it.

4146 #include <linux/platform_device.h>

After this patch, there are 225 files that use <linux/mod_devicetable.h>,
for a reduction of around 3900 times that <linux/mod_devicetable.h>
does not have to be read & parsed.

225 #include <linux/mod_devicetable.h>

This patch was build-tested on 20 different arch-es.

It also makes these drivers SubmitChecklist#1 compliant.

ath9k: simplify the code-paths when not using the built-in EEPROM

There were two paths in the code for "external" eeprom sources. The code
in eeprom.c only handled the cases where the eeprom data was loaded via
request_firmware. ahb.c and pci.c on the other hand had some duplicate
code which was only used when the eeprom data was passed via
ath9k_platform_data.
With this change all eeprom data handling is now unified in eeprom.c.
