Add a way to let the drivers know if the processes are frozen.
This is needed by drivers that are waiting for processes to end on their
shutdown path.
Convert pm_freezing into a function and export it, so it can be used by
drivers that are either built-in or modules.

Why can't you export the original pm_freezing variable and why is this
fixing anything?

Use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() instead, please.

Because then any module will be able to modify the content of the variable.
The Fixes: is because the last patch on the set is doing a real fix.
If you only cherry-pick the last patch on a stable branch, the build
will fail. (Also, the zero-day builder complains)
Anyway, I think we can hold this patch for a bit. The snd people are
discussing if this the way to handle it, or if we should handle
.shutdown in a different way.
Thanks!
