[PATCH v3 4/5] PM: hibernate: add new api pm_transition_event()

[Samuel Zhang]

dev_pm_ops.thaw() is called in following cases:
* normal case: after hibernation image has been created.
* error case 1: creation of a hibernation image has failed.
* error case 2: restoration from a hibernation image has failed.

For normal case, it is called mainly for resume storage devices for
saving the hibernation image. Other devices that are not involved
in the image saving do not need to resume the device. But since there's
no api to know which case thaw() is called, device drivers can't
conditionally resume device in thaw().

The new pm_transition_event() is such a api to query if thaw() is called
in normal case. The returned value in thaw() is:
* PM_EVENT_THAW: normal case, no need to resume non-storage devices.
* PM_EVENT_RECOVER: error case, need to resume devices.
