Subject: [PATCH] Freezer: Do not allow freezing processes to clear TIF_SIGPENDING

[Please consider as 2.6.24 material.]
---
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@...k.pl>

Do not allow processes to clear their TIF_SIGPENDING if TIF_FREEZE is set,
so that they will not race with the freezer (like mysqld does, for example).
