[PATCH 2/5] lockdep: check that no locks held at freeze time

From: Mandeep Singh Baines
Date: Sat Feb 16 2013 - 04:54:42 EST


We shouldn't try_to_freeze if locks are held. Verified that
I get no lockdep warnings after applying this patch and
"vfork: don't freezer_count() for in-kernel users of CLONE_VFORK".

Changes since v1:
* LKML: <20130215111635.GA26955@xxxxxxxxx> Ingo Molnar
* Added a msg string that gets passed in.
* LKML: <20130215154449.GD30829@xxxxxxxxxx> Oleg Nesterov
* Check PF_NOFREEZE in try_to_freeze().
