Well, the problem with that is the driver would need to tell the generic call
what the legacy routine is and there's no, er, generic way to do that.

In the i2c case, for example, there is struct i2c_driver that contains the
->suspend() and ->resume() pointers, so the bus type driver _knows_ how to
get there, but the PM core doesn't have this information.

Thanks,
