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.

Currently, there are two entries for CONFIG_GOLDFISH.
In arch/x86/Kconfig:
config GOLDFISH
def_bool y
depends on X86_GOLDFISH
In drivers/platform/goldfish/Kconfig:
menuconfig GOLDFISH
bool "Platform support for Goldfish virtual devices"
depends on HAS_IOMEM && HAS_DMA
While Kconfig allows multiple entries, it generally leads to tricky
code.
Prior to commit bd2f348db5 ("goldfish: refactor goldfish platform
configs"), CONFIG_GOLDFISH was an alias of CONFIG_X86_GOLDFISH.
After the mentioned commit added the second entry with a user prompt,
the former provides the 'default' property that is effective only when
X86_GOLDFISH=y.
Merge them tegether to clarify how it has worked in the past 8 years.
