You're using the PM_PRE_FREEZE and PM_POST_THAW notifiers for both this and the userspace helper change. Is it your intention that drivers should continue to request these services but encounter an error if the request occurs at the wrong time? Or do you expect drivers to use the notifier chains to know when they shouldn't make any requests? In the second case you may have a problem, because there's no specification about the order in which the notifiers are sent. The service may get disabled before the driver learns it isn't available, or the driver may think the service is once again available before it gets enabled.
