Actually, looking into other drivers, the common approach seems to be to declare

static SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS(exynos4_tmu_pm,
			 exynos4_tmu_suspend, exynos4_tmu_resume);

outside the #ifdef code and then just assign

		.pm = &exynos4_tmu_pm;

unconditionally.

That seems to be a much simpler solution. Any special reason for not
implementing it this way ? Same question applies to the other patches in the
series.

Thanks,
