The patch looks good to me and it works. I have just one
question/comment.
What is "safe" here? Because I worked on this problem [1], so I
understood it. but it is not very clear / explicit. One approach I
thought would be to the codepaths aware of "test_resume" via a
global variable called "snapshot_testing" similar to freezer_test_done.
if snapshot_testing is true, don't use exclusive flags.
Thanks,
Pavan
