I think it is OK as a temporary solution for now. But there was some
investigation last year as part of some work in Linaro to enable
"drivers/acpi/sleep.c" into the build cleaning up some x86-ness in there.
acpi_sleep_hibernate_setup() already does this but enabling sleep.c need
some careful investigation so that it doesn't break any existing arm64/x86
platforms and made need some wordings clarification in the ACPI spec.
Today system suspend work via psci std path bypassing the ACPI paths which
may not be ideal as none of the ACPI methods are honoured. Some arm64
platforms may implement them and expect to be executed in the future,
maybe ?

So, until that happens, I see this as an possible alternative and
temporary solution.
