Subject: [PATCH] wait: don't wake up freezable wait by freezing fake signal

kernel may try to wake up task with fake signal when freezing task,
if the task is waiting event using wait_event_freezable,
it's better to freeze the wait, instead of breaking it.

otherwise the caller may need to retry the wait,
maybe like below code:

	if (rc == -ERESTARTSYS && freezing(current)) {
		clear_thread_flag(TIF_SIGPENDING);
		goto again;
	}
