[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/5 v2] dm: device_remove: Don't return in device_chld_remove() upon error

[Stefan Roese <sr@denx.de>]

On my x86 platform I've noticed, that calling dm_uninit() or the new
function dm_remove_devices_flags() does not remove the desired device at
all. Debugging showed, that the serial uclass returns -EPERM in
serial_pre_remove() and this leads to a complete stop of the device
removal pretty early, as the serial device is one of the first ones in
the DM. Here the dm tree output:

=> dm tree
 Class       Probed   Name
----------------------------------------
 root        [ + ]    root_driver
 rsa_mod_exp [   ]    |-- mod_exp_sw
 serial      [ + ]    |-- serial
 rtc         [   ]    |-- rtc
 timer       [ + ]    |-- tsc-timer
 syscon      [ + ]    |-- pch_pinctrl
 ...

In this example, device_remove(root) will stop directly after trying to
remove the "serial" device.

To solve this problem, this patch removes the return upon error check in
the device_remove() call in device_chld_remove(). This leads to
device_chld_remove() continuing with the device_remove() call to the
following child devices.
