OK, will do in a minute. On top of
"[PATCH pm] freezer: fix wait_event_freezable/__thaw_task races"
you sent. (btw, thanks, I forgout about it ;)

Rafael, could you remind why freezer_do_not_count/freezer_count check
->mm != NULL ?

The comment says "However, we don't want kernel threads to be frozen",
but it is not clear anyway. A kernel thread simply shouldn't use this
interface if it doesn't want to freeze.

And in any case, PF_KTHREAD looks better if we really need to filter
out the kernel threads.

Oleg.
