But won't this show up as "standby" state in /sys/power/state ?
Or did you mean:
	pm_state[PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE] = pm_labels[relative_states ? 0 : 2];

which will be "mem" or "freeze" based on relative_states.

In-fact, I did exactly this when I first hacked. Since it exposed
incorrectly to sysfs and I was not sure of these relative_states and
it's usage, I preferred re-using suspend_set_ops for this.

IIUC showing freeze state as "mem" in sysfs is fine as that's the
deepest possible state when relative_states=1. But showing it as freeze
as "standby" in sysfs when relative_states=0 looked wrong to me though
it works as freeze state.

As a side-note with psci, it get called quite early before
core_initcall. But that can be fixed if needed and is different issue.
