#1255702 — [PATCH] xfs: clear PF_NOFREEZE for xfsaild kthread

FromJiri Kosina <jikos@kernel.org>
Date2015-10-26 08:00 +0100
Subject[PATCH] xfs: clear PF_NOFREEZE for xfsaild kthread
Message-ID<qnJV7-4WM-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

Since xfsaild has been converted to kthread in 0030807c, it calls 
try_to_freeze() during every AIL push iteration. It however doesn't set 
itself as freezable, and therefore this try_to_freeze() will never do 
anything.

Before (hopefully eventually) kthread freezing gets converted to fileystem 
freezing, we'd rather mark xfsaild freezable (as it can generate I/O 
during suspend).
