This fix is using a new function that is introduced in previous patches
in this set, so this fix can't be backported.

Can you please change the order of the patches in this set, make this
patch first patch in the set and update it to use old version of
functions, so it can be backported?
Later you can update old function with new one in the patch that
introduces the new functions.


Also instead of saying "cpp service problem" in the title, can you
please describe the problem, I guess the problem you are referring is
something like, "CPP service is consuming resources even there is no
device remaining that requires it" ? Or is it something else?
