Can you elaborate?
The thread will be in freezer_do_not_count() area, but it is just
waiting for event there, it should not do much damage.
If this is bugfix, should it be cc-ed to stable?
Did you test it with suspend/hibernation? Because I can't really see
how it works.

_Three_ underscores. And two underscore version exists, too,
fortunately it at least has different number of arguments.
