Well, this is a core initcall, so suspend_set_ops() invocations from platforms
really should happen after that, so something like this should be sufficient here:

pm_state[PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE] = pm_labels[relative_states ? PM_SUSPEND_MEM : PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE];

if I'm not mistaken.

And this should not be necessary then.

And this is still needed, of course.
