[ Upstream commit 5229a658f6453362fbb9da6bf96872ef25a7097e ] Len Brown has reported that system suspend sometimes fail due to inability to freeze a task working in ext4_trim_fs() for one minute. Trimming a large filesystem on a disk that slowly processes discard requests can indeed take a long time. Since discard is just an advisory call, it is perfectly fine to interrupt it at any time and the return number of discarded blocks until that moment. Do that when we detect the task is being frozen.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
