The APM emulation is currently broken as a result of commit
831441862956fffa17b9801db37e6ea1650b0f69
"Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default"
that removed the PF_NOFREEZE annotations from apm_ioctl() without
adding the appropriate freezer hooks.  Fix it and remove the
unnecessary variable flags from apm_ioctl().

This problem has been fixed in the mainline by
commit cb43c54ca05c01533c45e4d3abfe8f99b7acf624
"Freezer: Fix APM emulation breakage".
