[PATCH 3/9] PM: suspend_block: Abort task freezing if a suspend_blocker is active.

["Arve Hjønnevåg" <arve@android.com>]

If a suspend_blocker is active, suspend will fail anyway. Since
try_to_freeze_tasks can take up to 20 seconds to complete or fail, aborting
as soon as someone blocks suspend (e.g. from an interrupt handler) improves
the worst case wakeup latency.

On an older kernel where task freezing could fail for processes attached
to a debugger, this fixed a problem where the device sometimes hung for
20 seconds before the screen turned on.
