Subject[PATCH] nilfs2: Add missing set_freezable() for freezable kthread
Date
From: Kevin Hao <haokexin@gmail.com>

The kernel thread function nilfs_segctor_thread() invokes
the try_to_freeze() in its loop. But all the kernel threads are
non-freezable by default. So if we want to make a kernel thread to be
freezable, we have to invoke set_freezable() explicitly.

Andrew, please add this to the queue for the next merge window (if
it's still ok). This fixes an issue where the log writer thread was
not calling try_to_freeze() as intended when starting suspend or
hibernation.

I haven't run into any problems with or without this change in various
suspend/hibernation tests so far, so I haven't added a Cc tag to the
stable team.

If any suspend failures are reported due to the lack of this setup,
I will separately request the stable team to backport this.

Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi
