At this point in time syscore_suspend() was already called and CPU peripheral state saved through CPU PM notifiers.

To me it looks like we are using this hook to disable fiqs, since it is not done in generic code.

By the time the suspend finisher (ie this function) is run, the processor state has been saved and I think that's all you have to do, function can just return after calling swsusp_save(), unless I am missing something.
I do not understand why a soft_restart is required here. On a side note, finisher is called with irqs disabled so, since you added a function for soft restart noirq, it should be used, if needed, but I have to understand why in the first place.

If the goal of soft_restart is to return 0 on success from this call, you can still do that without requiring a soft_restart in the first place. IIUC all you want to achieve is to save processor context registers so that when you resume from image you will actually return from here.

Can you elaborate a bit more on this please ?

Same here, thanks.

This soft_restart is justified so that you resume from the context saved when creating the image.

Ok, a function with attribute __naked that still calls C functions, is attr __naked really needed here ?

cpu_init is called in the cpu_resume path, why is this call needed here ?
Thanks, Lorenzo
