The issue is that CONFIG_PM doesn't actually enable any of the PM
callbacks, it only allows you to enable CONFIG_PM_SLEEP and
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME. This means that if you use CONFIG_PM to protect your
system sleep callbacks they may end up unreferenced if only runtime PM
is enabled.

Personally I'd rather just uncondtionally enable PM rather than faff
around with all these ifdefs...
