When using the device links without the consumers or
suppliers maintaining pointers to these links, a flag can
help in autoremoving the links on supplier driver unbind.
We remove these links only when the supplier's link to its
consumers has gone in DL_STATE_SUPPLIER_UNBIND state.

Lukas, as suggested in the thread [1] this change adds additional flag
to autoremove device links on supplier unbind.
For arm-smmu, we want to _not_ keep references to the device links
added between arm-smmu, and consumer devices.
Robin also pointed to [2] the need to autoremove the device link on
supplier unbind rather than consumer unbind.
