Totally agree with the patch(es), but I noticed that the ARM bL switcher
does not depend on PM_SLEEP, so I do not think you can compile
tick_{suspend/resume}_local() out if !PM_SLEEP, unless dependency
is enforced by the ARM bL switcher config but I do not think that
the config dependency really exists, Nico please correct me if I am
wrong.
