This is not an error. If a PCI device driver is not loaded or not installed,
MSI-X/MSI is not enabled on the device, so pdev->msi_enabled is 0
and pdev->msix_enabled is 0. In this case, it's still legit for a user to request
the system (i.e. here it's a Linux VM running on Hyper-V) to hibernate -- in
this case, we should not try to save/restore the MSI/MSI-X state, and we
should not let the hibernation fail; here we should just ignore the device
by returning a success ("return 0;").
