I didn't see the "struct virtio_driver" has a member "struct dev_pm_ops *pm"

It defines its own hooks (freeze and restore) though it includes "struct 
device_driver"

which has a "struct dev_pm_ops *pm".

I just follow other virtio drivers to directly use the hooks defined in 
"struct virtio_driver".

For this driver, Both __maybe_unused and #ifdef are OK to me.
