While looking at reboot issues and module load/unload tests, I found out some resources allocated in the dailink .init() callback are not properly released - there is no existing mechanism in the soc-core to do so. The addition of a dailink .exit() callback seems to be the simplest solution overall. It can be argued that the existing machine platform device .remove() callback can also perform the necessary cleanups, however as shown in the last two examples this might require a loop to identify components whereas the dailink .exit() already has all the necessary information to revert the actions done in the .init() step.
