Subject: [PATCH] of: add dummy of_platform_device_destroy

The new phy-j721e-wiz driver causes a link failure without CONFIG_OF:

drivers/phy/ti/phy-j721e-wiz.o: In function `wiz_remove':
phy-j721e-wiz.c:(.text+0x40): undefined reference to `of_platform_device_destroy'

Add a dummy version of this function to avoid having to add Kconfig
dependencies for the driver.

Fixes: 42440de5438a ("phy: ti: j721e-wiz: Add support for WIZ module present in TI J721E SoC")

This is already declared, so don't you want to remove the existing one.

I'm curious why this is needed, but of_platform_device_create() is not?

Yes, this is what I had intended. I'm surprised there are no warnings when
the compiler sees both an 'extern' and a 'static inline' declaration, but both
clang and gcc seem to accept this, as long as the 'static inline' declaration
comes first.

I think what happens in the driver is that this is called from the
probe function
after calling some other interfaces that always return an error without
CONFIG_OF, so the compiler manages to optimize out that call.

I agree it makes sense to treat create the same as remove, I'll send a new
version addressing both comments.
