    [netdrvr] natsemi: Fix device removal bug · f6c42865

    This episode illustrates how an overused warning can train people to
    ignore that warning, which winds up hiding bugs.
    
    The warning
    
    drivers/net/natsemi.c: In function ‘natsemi_remove1’:
    drivers/net/natsemi.c:3222: warning: ignoring return value of
    ‘device_create_file’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
    
    is oft-ignored, even though at close inspection one notices this occurs
    in the /remove/ function, not normally where creation occurs.  A quick
    s/create/remove/ and we are fixed, with the warning gone.
