I tried your patch, but when I apply it my kernel doesn't compile any more. I 
get these warnings/errors:

[...]
  CC      crypto/cryptd.o
crypto/cryptd.c: In function ‘cryptd_thread’:
crypto/cryptd.c:344: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘try_to_freeze’
[...]
  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
crypto/built-in.o: In function `cryptd_thread':
cryptd.c:(.text+0xd7f5): undefined reference to `try_to_freeze'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
