lockdep: check that no locks held at freeze time
We shouldn't try_to_freeze if locks are held. Holding a lock can cause a deadlock if the lock is later acquired in the suspend or hibernate path (e.g. by dpm). Holding a lock can also cause a deadlock in the case of cgroup_freezer if a lock is held inside a frozen cgroup that is later acquired by a process outside that group. History: This patch was originally applied as 6aa9707099c and reverted in dbf520a9d7d4 because NFS was freezing with locks held. It was deemed better to keep the bad freeze point in NFS to allow laptops to suspend consistently. The previous patch in this series converts NFS to call _unsafe versions of the freezable helpers so that lockdep doesn't complain about them until a more correct fix can be applied.
