I over-zealously killed the thread when it's not really necessary: the thread is frozen before calling the freeze() callback and is thawed only after the restore() or thaw() callbacks are done, so we're exactly in the same state with or without keeping the kthread around (just that the PID of the kthread will change). So I'll back out this change for the next revision.
