It wouldn't cover all of the use cases.
For example, PCI does other things in addition to running a callback
when it is present.
Something like this might be enough though:
#define pm_driver_callback_is_present(dev, method) \
(dev->driver && dev->driver->pm && dev->driver->pm->method)
#define pm_run_driver_callback(dev, method) \
(pm_driver_callback_is_present(dev, method) ?
dev->driver->pm->method(dev) : 0)
#define pm_get_driver_callback(dev, method) \
(pm_driver_callback_is_present(dev, method) ?
dev->driver->pm->method : NULL)
so whoever needs the callback pointer can use pm_get_driver_callback()
and whoever only needs to run the callback can use
pm_run_driver_callback().
Cheers!
