You probably could have found that out yourself quite easily [1] ;-)

This is actually still a problem in rc7. Commit
2e711c04dbbf7a7732a3f7073b1fc285d12b369d ("PM: Remove sysdev suspend,
resume and shutdown operations") broke it.
It's probably easily fixable by just removing the offending
.resume/.shutdown lines (and their referenced functions), but I don't
know the code (or PM) enough to know if some replacement is missing
there.
