Yes.

Yes.

System suspend will be aborted only if any kernel thread didn't
complete within a reasonable amount of time (freeze_timeout_msecs, 20
sec by default). Otherwise already queued items will be properly
waited upon and suspend will proceed.

Yes.

This is set whenever system suspend is enabled.

This is set except for one platform (powerpc), where I assume freezing
of the tasks is achieved in a different way. In any case it doesn't
matter for us.
