thp: reduce khugepaged freezing latency
khugepaged can sometimes cause suspend to fail, requiring that the user retry the suspend operation. Use wait_event_freezable_timeout() instead of schedule_timeout_interruptible() to avoid missing freezer wakeups. A try_to_freeze() would have been needed in the khugepaged_alloc_hugepage tight loop too in case of the allocation failing repeatedly, and wait_event_freezable_timeout will provide it too. khugepaged would still freeze just fine by trying again the next minute but it's better if it freezes immediately.
