I see that my changelog is very cryptic. Sorry about that.

I have been converting drivers from using legacy pm_ops to dev_pm_ops 
which will allow all drivers to use the same infrastructure and overtime 
obsolete the legacy usage. With this change I made, __device_suspend() 
will find  dev->bus->pm->suspend instead of dev->bus->suspend.

isa bus and isa drivers probably will never take advantage of the pm 
capabilities dev_pm_ops allow for, the reason to update the isa bus to 
use dev_pm_ops is to allow for obsoleting legacy pm_ops handling in pm.
