I'm really not sure this is a good idea. According to [1], the error
code returned by PM hooks is not taken into account, and the device
will be considered as functional by the system even if
->suspend() returns an error. This means, next time we enter suspend,
gpmi_pm_suspend() will be called which will lead to an unbalanced
release_dma_channels()/acquire_dma_channels().
