Hello, (drivers/ide) and (drivers/ata) are the two major families, I am working
on, for generic PM upgradation. I was bit unaware about priority, and also in
the last, both ide and ata drivers have to be upgraded.

To upgrade PM in (drivers/ide) I have made .suspend() and .resume() static. Then
bind them in "struct dev_pm_ops" variable (ide_pci_pm_ops) and expose it using
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(). This has affected 30 drivers. I was hoping if ide changes
can be tested/verified, specially [PATCH 1/3]. As then, I will be sure about
similar change in ata, as it also requires similar alteration.
