[PATCH] swsusp: freeze user space processes first Allow swsusp to freeze processes successfully under heavy load by freezing userspace processes before kernel threads. [Thanks to Nigel Cunningham <nigel@suspend2.net> for suggesting the way to go.] Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
