From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx> The APM emulation is currently broken as a result of commit 831441862956fffa17b9801db37e6ea1650b0f69 "Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default" that removed the PF_NOFREEZE annotations from apm_ioctl() without adding the appropriate freezer hooks. Fix it and remove the unnecessary variable flags from apm_ioctl(). Special thanks to Franck Bui-Huu <vagabon.xyz@xxxxxxxxx> for pointing out the problem. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
