fbdev: atmel_lcdfb: Stop using platform_driver_probe()
On today's platforms the benefit of platform_driver_probe() isn't that
relevant any more. It allows to drop some code after booting (or module
loading) for .probe() and discard the .remove() function completely if
the driver is built-in. This typically saves a few 100k.
The downside of platform_driver_probe() is that the driver cannot be
bound and unbound at runtime which is ancient and also slightly
complicates testing. There are also thoughts to deprecate
platform_driver_probe() because it adds some complexity in the driver
core for little gain. Also many drivers don't use it correctly. This
driver for example misses to mark the driver struct with __refdata which
is needed to suppress a (W=1) modpost warning:
WARNING: modpost: drivers/video/fbdev/atmel_lcdfb: section mismatch in reference: atmel_lcdfb_driver+0x4 (section: .data) -> atmel_lcdfb_remove (section: .exit.text)
