Merge branch 'pm-sleep'
* pm-sleep:
freezer: Fix typo in freezable_schedule_timeout() comment
PM / s2idle: Clear the events_check_enabled flag
PM / sleep: Remove pm_complete_with_resume_check()
PM: ARM: locomo: Drop suspend and resume bus type callbacks
PM: Use a more common logging style
PM: Document rules on using pm_runtime_resume() in system suspend callbacks
