This really looks like it's error-prone (I made this mistake for atmel_serial
and wouldn't have noticed if Frans hadn't told me), and AFAICS, for a number of
drivers we'll have suspend = freeze = poweroff and resume = thaw = restore.
Maybe putting something like this in pm.h would help ?

#define PM_OPS(name, suspend, resume) \
struct dev_pm_ops name = { \
.suspend = suspend, \
.resume = resume, \
.freeze = suspend, \
.thaw = resume, \
.poweroff = suspend, \
.restore = resume, \
};
