I don't think so. If imx8 use the same GPCv2 block, there should be no pm-imx8.o and suspend-imx8.o.
We should try to reuse the existing ones.

We can also interpret "-imx7" is the first SoC which has the GPCv2 block.

Then you may resolve the following compile error:

CC arch/arm/mach-imx/pm-imx7.o
arch/arm/mach-imx/pm-imx7.c: In function ‘imx_gpcv2_pm_init’:
arch/arm/mach-imx/pm-imx7.c:836:7: error: ‘gpcv2_irq_instance’ undeclared (first use in this function)
cd = gpcv2_irq_instance;
^
arch/arm/mach-imx/pm-imx7.c:836:7: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/mach-imx/pm-imx7.o] Error 1
