freezer: fix current->state restoration race in refrigerator()

refrigerator() saves current->state before entering frozen state and
restores it before returning using __set_current_state(); however,
this is racy, for example, please consider the following sequence.

	set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
	try_to_freeze();
	if (kthread_should_stop())
		break;
	schedule();

If kthread_stop() races with ->state restoration, the restoration can
restore ->state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE after kthread_stop() sets it to
TASK_RUNNING but kthread_should_stop() may still see zero
->should_stop because there's no memory barrier between restoring
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and kthread_should_stop() test.

This isn't restricted to kthread_should_stop().  current->state is
often used in memory barrier based synchronization and silently
restoring it w/o mb breaks them.

Use set_current_state() instead.
