Not that it matters, since doing it before losing control or on resume
is the same from our pov, but I've always pencilled in sanitize as being
done on takeover (i.e. before init). Why do you favour after fini?
Gut feeling prefers keeping it as a separate step rather rolling it up
into init/fini. But that's just because before we did sanitize
elsewhere, we had many strange bugs and those bugs have left their
scars (so I like seeing sanitize, it reminds me of dead bugs).
