I agree with a point made by Lukas that volatile_stolen would be better. 
Even the comment above suggests so. :)

I also agree with the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SUSPEND) suggestion.

I also agree with Lukas'es suggestion to get rid of this and just do:

dev_priv->mm.volatile_stolen = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SUSPEND) &&
			       acpi_dev_present("INT3392");

With the existing comment it should be OK.
