You shouldn't do it this way.  The USB core treats drivers differently 
depending on whether their suspend and resume callbacks are defined.  
If those method pointers are NULL, the driver will be treated as though 
it doesn't support power management at all.

You should keep the pointers and the routines.  The contents of the 
routines can be removed, leaving nothing but a "return 0;" line.
