Can you elaborate on the pros and cons of each approach? There's
convincing reason to prefer __maybe_unused over CONFIG_PM_SLEEP
according to Arnd Bergmann [1],

You option is valuable to me because I'm making a tree-wide change.

Currently there are 929 drivers having device PM callbacks,

$ grep -rI "\.pm = &" --include=*.c? ./|wc -l
929

I put all files having device PM callbacks into four categories
based on weather a file has CONFIG_PM_SLEEP or PM macro like
SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS, here are the statistics,
? 1. have both CONFIG_PM_SLEEP and PM_OPS macro: 213
? 2. have CONFIG_PM_SLEEP but no PM_OPS macro: 19
? 3. have PM macro but not CONFIG_PM_SLEEP: 347
? 4. no PM macro or CONFIG_PM_SLEEP: 302
