What about this variant:
1. "start" thread wakes up to start capture
2. system freezing activates
3. "finish" thread wakes up and freezes
4. "start" thread issues capture and freezes
And again, I assume that system's freezing should wake
wait_event_interruptible(), otherwise it won't be possible to freeze
idling threads at all and freezing should fail (IIUC).
And in this case synchronization between start/finish threads should be
needed in regards to freezing.
Note that this could be a wrong assumption, I'm not closely familiar
with how freezer works.
