For Xen suspend/resume, I'd like to use the freezer to get all threads
into a known consistent state (where, specifically, they don't have any
outstanding pagetable updates pending). In other words, the freezer as
it currently stands is what I want, modulo some of these issues where it
gets caught up unexpectedly. If threads end up getting frozen anywhere
preempt isn't explicitly disabled, it wouldn't work for me.
