Right.  I always use CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP.  And yes, according to
what I had seen, this was an ARM issue not only OMAP.

When I was looking a bit further, I found this patch: a0acae0e "freezer:
unexport refrigerator() and update try_to_freeze() slightly", which
seems to be the one introducing the bug.  It's quite far back and quite
large, so reverting it is not that easy.

I may try to do some bisecting later today, but I'm not sure I'll have
the time.
