kernel/reboot: avoid potential deadlocks during suspension
Invoking reboot with LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_SW_SUSPEND causes kernel/reboot.c
to acquire system_transition_mutex and invoke hibernate(). hibernate()
calls lock_system_sleep(), which sets PF_NOFREEZE on current and attempts
to acquire system_transition_mutex again, potentially hitting:
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
syz.3.5755/5950 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffffff8fc04760 (system_transition_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: lock_system_sleep+0x49/0x70 kernel/power/main.c:71
but task is already holding lock:
ffffffff8fc04760 (system_transition_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: __do_sys_reboot kernel/reboot.c:774 [inline]
ffffffff8fc04760 (system_transition_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: __se_sys_reboot+0x223/0x460 kernel/reboot.c:738
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

lock(system_transition_mutex);

Move the suspension operation outside the scope protected by lock
system_transition_mutex.
