At least some of the powerpc defconfigs were added with CONFIG_PM
disabled.  I assume that was on purpose (though it may not have been).

I'd not be so sure - since it's a bool without an explicit default set
Kconfig will default to disabling it and if anything enabling it is the
option that requires special effort.

This may be a naive suggestion, but have you considered simply _asking_
the people who added those defconfigs?
