Hi Alex,

This one took a little bit of thought because it's a bit unusual in that
that wiper write back isn't technically unwinding anything so doesn't
have an obvious match in probe.  However, as it logically wants to happen
just after we've removed the userspace interfaces, I agree with your
logic that it makes sense to do it with a devm triggered call.

So, on that basis applied. 

+CC Maury on basis might still be about on that address and want to
express a view on whether this makes sense.
