Calling ucsi_desctroy() after removing the notifier makes sense to me,
but do you also need to unregister the instance after that?
You may still be in the middle of init or resume, so I think we need
to accept notifications until we are sure those have finished, i.e.
ucsi_unregister() has finished.
