Subject: [PATCH 2/2] kprobes: check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@...hat.com>

Check CONFIG_FREEZER instead of CONFIG_PM because kprobe booster
depends on freeze_processes() and thaw_processes() when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.

This fixes a linkage error which occurs when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, CONFIG_PM=y
and CONFIG_FREEZER=n.
