That is not correct. Old suspend and resume callbacks were called for
both S2R and S2D. Whether it is actually needed for S2R I don't know but
looking at the code they should not hurt.

I don't think poweroff handler is needed.

BTW, why so we retuen -ENOMEM from these methods if interface->data is
missing? I'd say we should not fail suspend resume in that case or if we
fail then with somethig like -EINVAL - we did not have mempry allocation
failure.
