Its mandatory for the drivers to provide set_state_{oneshot|periodic}()

But this leads to unnecessary noop callbacks for drivers which don't
want to implement them. Over that, it will lead to a full function call
for nothing really useful.

Lets make all set-state callbacks optional.

As this patch is needed for the other changes in this patchset, is it possible to take it through my tree Thomas ?
