You know, maybe we should allow bus types to use both the old and new
interfaces.  It would make life easier for other subsystems in addition
to i2c.

This doesn't mean that the core would end up calling two sets of
suspend routines.  If the bus type uses legacy routines then all the
non-runtime entries in the pm_ops structure would be empty.

The changes to the PM core necessary to do this are quite small.  Does 
it seem like a reasonable thing to do?
