Michal Hocko 80d136e138 mm: make mm_percpu_wq non freezable
Geert has reported a freeze during PM resume and some additional
debugging has shown that the device_resume worker cannot make a forward
progress because it waits for an event which is stuck waiting in
drain_all_pages:

  INFO: task kworker/u4:0:5 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

      delayed: drain_local_pages_wq BAR(1703), vmstat_update

Tetsuo has properly noted that mm_percpu_wq is created as WQ_FREEZABLE
so it is frozen this early during resume so we are effectively
deadlocked.  Fix this by dropping WQ_FREEZABLE when creating
mm_percpu_wq.  We really want to have it operational all the time.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
