Subject: [PATCH] fuse: make fuse daemon frozen along with kernel threads


There is well known issue that freezing will fail in case that fuse
daemon is frozen firstly with some requests not handled, as the fuse
usage task is waiting for the response from fuse daemon and can't be
frozen.

To solve the issue above, make fuse daemon frozen after all all user
space processes frozen and during the kernel threads frozen phase.
PF_FREEZE_DAEMON flag is added to indicate that the current thread is
the fuse daemon, set on connection, and clear on disconnection.
It works as all fuse requests are handled during user space processes
frozen, there will no further fuse request, and it's safe to continue
to freeze fuse daemon together with kernel freezable tasks.
