This patch adds a call to dm_pre_os_remove() to announce_and_cleanup()
so that drivers that have the flag DM_FLAG_PRE_OS_REMOVE set may do
some last-stage cleanup before the OS is started.

In a full DM world we could perhaps have devices which use the DMA
uclass, so we can tell which ones need to be removed.

How about dm_remove_dma_devices()?

I'm not so sure. As we would perhaps need to add other calls for
further pre-OS removal reasons (e.g. the stop timer example). How
about calling a function with the removal flags as parameter:

        dm_remove_devices_conditional(ONLY_REMOVE_ACTIVE_DMA | ...);

or

        dm_remove_devices_flags(ONLY_REMOVE_ACTIVE_DMA | ...);

What do you think?

Also (once we have things figured out) this needs some sort of test in test/.

I already feared that. ;)

Sure, I'll try to add some test, once the path is clear.

Thanks,
Stefan
