The freezer currently attempts to distinguish kernel threads from user space tasks by checking if their mm pointer is unset and it does not send fake signals to kernel threads. However, there are kernel threads, mostly related to networking, that behave like user space tasks and may want to be sent a fake signal to be frozen. Introduce the new process flag PF_FREEZER_NOSIG that will be set by default for all kernel threads and make the freezer only send fake signals to the tasks having PF_FREEZER_NOSIG unset. Provide the set_freezable_with_signal() function to be called by the kernel threads that want to be sent a fake signal for freezing. This patch should not change the freezer's observable behavior.
