[PATCH v2 2/4] freezer,umh: Clean up freezer/initrd interaction

[Peter Zijlstra]

handle_initrd() marks itself as PF_FREEZER_SKIP in order to ensure
that the UMH, which is going to freeze the system, doesn't
indefinitely wait for it's caller.

Rework things by adding UMH_FREEZABLE to indicate the completion is
freezable.
