This is an attempt to come up with a 'late removal' feature, as implemented by Marek, but using different terminology and trying to fit in with the existing removal flags.
I have taken the opportunity to clean up a few related things.
The series is available at u-boot-dm/late-working
The previous patch was here:

Changes in v5: - Change logic to allow flags to be combined - Add patch to remove vital devices last
Changes in v4: - Use 'vital' rather than 'late' as the description - Invert the removal flag to DM_REMOVE_NON_VITAL, to avoid the need for two-pass processing in the bowels of driver model - Simplify the test to only test 'vital' - Drop the change to uclass_destroy() - Revised and updated based on discussion
