[Suspend2][ 18/20] [Suspend2] Free up memory if necessary.

[Nigel Cunningham <nigel@suspend2.net>]

Seek to ensure memory constraints are met. If we need to free memory, we
thaw kernel space processes only, so that we won't deadlock with the swap
and filesystem code. We then call shrink_all_memory until the constraints
are met or we determine that we're not getting anywhere. We may also bail
immediately if the user has said they don't want any memory to be freed.
Kernel space is re-frozen before we exit.
