commit 80ad623edd2d0ccb47d85357ee31c97e6c684e82 upstream.

This reverts commit 696249132158014d594896df3a81390616069c5c. The
cleaner thread can block freezing when there's a snapshot cleaning in
progress and the other threads get suspended first. From the logs
provided by Martin we're waiting for reading extent pages:

kernel: PM: Syncing filesystems ... done.
kernel: Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.015 seconds) done.
kernel: Freezing remaining freezable tasks ...
kernel: Freezing of tasks failed after 20.003 seconds (1 tasks refusing to freeze, wq_busy=0):

As this affects a released kernel (4.4) we need a minimal fix for
stable kernels.
