Ack. That would seem to be the right conversion to do.

Now, I'm not sure if system suspend really should abort a core dump,
but it's clearly what we have done in the past.

Maybe we'd like to remove that "|| freezing()" at some point, but
that's a separate discussion, I think. At least having it in that form
makes it all very explicit, instead of the current very subtle exact
interaction with the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL bit (that has other meanings).

Hmm?
