[Impact]

Bug is impacting the suspend/resume flow when there is no input device
connected to machine. xorg hangs in this case.

[Where problems could occur]

The problem could occur in places where there is no input device
connected to the system but a suspend/resume is triggered.

[Test Case]

* Enable proposed updates (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed)
* Update xorg-server to the version in -proposed: sudo apt install -t jammy-proposed xorg-server
* Unplug all USB devices such as USB drive, keyboard, mouse, etc.
* Set RTC timer and suspend the system via UART console
    $ echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
    $ sudo rtcwake -v -m no -s 240
    $ sudo systemctl suspend

[Regression Potential]

The patch defines a default behavior in systemd_logind_drop_master
function so there is a possibility that there might be a regression that
may affect all the systems that utilizes systemd_logind_drop_master
