This does result in rather confusing behaviour, in that the attempts to
suspend end up getting silently ignored which isn't what you expect.
Other ARM platforms deal with this by erroring out of the suspend if
they can tell that it's not going to work and otherwise just trusting
the system integrator to know what they're doing when they turn on
suspend in Kconfig.

It would be more friendly to at least put in a default implementation
which prints an error telling the user what they need to do to actually
get suspend working.
