[PATCH 2/4] Task notifier against mm: Implement todo list intask_struct

[Christoph Lameter]

Introduce a todo notifier in the task_struct so that a task can be told to do
certain things. Abuse the suspend hooks try_to_freeze, freezing and refrigerator
to establish checkpoints where the todo list is processed. This will break software
suspend (next patch fixes and cleans up software suspend).
