int freeze_kernel_threads ( void  )

freeze_kernel_threads - Make freezable kernel threads go to the refrigerator.

On success, returns 0. On failure, -errno and only the kernel threads are thawed, so as to give a chance to the caller to do additional cleanups (if any) before thawing the userspace tasks. So, it is the responsibility of the caller to thaw the userspace tasks, when the time is right.

int freeze_processes ( void  )

freeze_processes - Signal user space processes to enter the refrigerator.

On success, returns 0. On failure, -errno and system is fully thawed.
