In general, parallel suspend/resume isn't easy to do correctly.  There 
are lots of constraints on the order in which devices can be suspended, 
many of them not explicitly stated anywhere.  I don't think it is 
feasible to encapsulate the constraint information in the PM core; if 
anything, it should be left up to the individual subsystems to suspend 
or resume their devices in parallel.
