I just refer to include/linux/suspend.h and create a new header file in the  
same folder.
If you have a better location for the new header file, please feel free to  
let me know.

Yes, we already have DPM_WATCHDOG to monitor device power management.
But we really hit the suspend hang issue that DPM_WATCHDOG cannot cover.
We propose a wide coverage debug feature like PM_SLEEP_MONITOR which
not only covers PM but also core PM hang issues.

And DPM_WATCHDOG is for device driver power management in  
drivers/base/power/main.c
and PM_SLEEP_MONITOR locate is for core power management in  
kernel/power/suspend.c.
I think it is fine for users to select whether they need device PM only or  
not.

Yes, we refer to DPM_WATCHDOG to extend the watchdog debugging for core PM.
Because we really hit a real case that was not covered by DPM_WATCHDOG.
I think PM_SLEEP_MONITOR is an extension debug feature from DPM_WATCHDOG.
