The hwrng_fill() function can run while devices are suspending and resuming. If the hwrng is behind a bus such as i2c or SPI and that bus is suspended, the hwrng may hang the bus while attempting to add some randomness. It's been observed on ChromeOS devices with suspend-to-idle (s2idle) and an i2c based hwrng that this kthread may run and ask the hwrng device for randomness before the i2c bus has been resumed. Let's make this kthread freezable so that we don't try to touch the hwrng during suspend/resume. This ensures that we can't cause the hwrng backing driver to get into a bad state because the device is guaranteed to be resumed before the hwrng kthread is thawed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
