(Creating Buffer-Local): change-major-mode-hook is useful for discarding some minor modes.

60047:16e24b1eba47

@defvar change-major-mode-hook
The function @code{kill-all-local-variables} runs this normal hook
before it does anything else.  This gives major modes a way to arrange
for something special to be done if the user switches to a different
major mode.  For best results, make this variable buffer-local, so that
it will disappear after doing its job and will not interfere with the
subsequent major mode.  @xref{Hooks}.
@end defvar

The function @code{kill-all-local-variables} runs this normal hook
before it does anything else.  This gives major modes a way to arrange
for something special to be done if the user switches to a different
major mode.  It is also useful for buffer-specific minor modes
that should be forgotten if the user changes the major mode.

For best results, make this variable buffer-local, so that it will
disappear after doing its job and will not interfere with the
subsequent major mode.  @xref{Hooks}.
