ext4: do not let fstrim block system suspend
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.
