Seems kind of temporary, so long as pm_set_ops() doesn't
enforce that as a requirement ...

For as many as can be #defined, yes.  But such #defines will
be rare; adding a new one would mean updating pm_states[]
plus maybe other code, and there are other structural issues
with that notion ... especially the way suspend() methods
have no way to determine the semantics of the target state.
