Not really, as long as you are sure that it is correct. :-)

You need to remember, however, that if you add system-wide PM
callbacks to the driver, the ordering between them and the client
device callbacks during system-wide suspend matters as well.  Don't
you need the link the ensure the correct system-wide suspend ordering
too?
