RMM doesn't "define" what exactly is written when a granule is
transitioned to "DELEGATED" or "UNDELEGATED". But does guarantee that
the contents are wiped after the transition. This may be:
* RMM writing random bytes or 0s
* Changing the MEC of the location.
See section A2.3.8 Granule wiping DEN0137 2.0-bet3
