You missed the point. The bus hierarchy has support designed-in to
pass power-management requests down the device tree. The only
functions which should be registering themselves with APM directly
are:
1) Old device drivers using a compatibility shim, or
2) Kernel code which is not a device driver.
If you need more functionality than DEVICE_SUSPEND and DEVICE_RESUME,
then add more methods.
