Ugh ok. Thanks for the report.
We're getting warnings because the task is in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state
when we call kthread_freezable_should_stop() from deep within the wait
event code. We shouldn't do that, and instead we should call
wait_event_freezable() and kthread_should_stop() in the condition. This
way we'll call into the freezer when the task is woken up by the suspend
path.
Can you try this?
