Hello,

Thanks for the feedback.
I agree that exporting freeze_timeout_msecs variable is not right way.

The real issue is that the driver thread cannot be frozen until timeout
expired for try_to_freeze_tasks. I think freeze_timeout_msecs value is
necessary for all module, including non-GPL modules, to prevent to fail
try_to_freeze_tasks.

I will reconsider the approach.

Thanks,
Dongbum.
