v2 cover Disable Suspend-to-Idle in Hyper-V and Fix Hibernation Interruptions

It has been reported that Hyper-V VM users can unintentionally abort hibernation by mouse or keyboard movements. To address this issue, we have decided to remove the wakeup events for the Hyper-V keyboard and mouse driver. However, this change introduces another problem:
Suspend-to-Idle brings the system down with no method to wake it back up.

Given that there are no real users of Suspend-to-Idle in Hyper-V, we have decided to disable this feature for VMBus. This results in:

$echo freeze > /sys/power/state

Quoted 1 line

bash: echo: write error: Operation not supported

The keyboard and mouse were previously registered as wakeup sources to interrupt the freeze operation in a VM. Since the freeze operation itself is no longer supported, we are disabling them as wakeup events.

This patchset ensures that the system remains stable and prevents unintended interruptions during hibernation.

PATCH v2 1/3 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Disable Suspend-to-Idle for VMBus

This change is specific to Hyper-V based VMs.
If the Virtual Machine Connection window is focused, a Hyper-V VM user can unintentionally touch the keyboard/mouse when the VM is hibernating or resuming, and consequently the hibernation or resume operation can be aborted unexpectedly. Fix the issue by no longer registering the keyboard/mouse as wakeup devices (see the other two patches for the changes to drivers/input/serio/hyperv-keyboard.c and drivers/hid/hid-hyperv.c).

The keyboard/mouse were registered as wakeup devices because the VM needs to be woken up from the Suspend-to-Idle state after a user runs "echo freeze > /sys/power/state". It seems like the Suspend-to-Idle feature has no real users in practice, so let's no longer support that by returning -EOPNOTSUPP if a user tries to use that.

$echo freeze > /sys/power/state

Quoted 1 line

bash: echo: write error: Operation not supported

Changes in v2:
* Add "#define vmbus_freeze NULL" when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not enabled.
* Change commit message to clarify that this change is specifc to Hyper-V based VMs.
