There are users of 'struct pm_ops' that aren't even supposed to define the _noirq callbacks (device types and device classes), so I thought it would be better to introduce a separate _noirq struct after all. > I don't think it makes things much cleaner.

Well, I'm not going to fight for having the two separate stuctures either. Also, it wouldn't be difficult to rearrange thigs so that all of the callbacks are in one structure, so if other people think it's better to do it this way, I'll go for it.
