If a write happens on a frozen filesystem, the s_writers.rw_sem gets stuck in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and inhibits suspending or hibernating the system. Since we want to freeze filesystems first then tasks, we need this condition not to inhibit suspend/hibernate, which means the wait has to have the TASK_FREEZABLE flag as well. Use the freezable version of percpu-rwsem to ensure this.
