From 15b2219facadec583c24523eed40fa45865f859f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Fri, 12 Mar 2021 20:20:42 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kernel: freezer should treat PF_IO_WORKER like PF_KTHREAD for freezing Don't send fake signals to PF_IO_WORKER threads, they don't accept signals. Just treat them like kthreads in this regard, all they need is a wakeup as no forced kernel/user transition is needed.
