xfs: Make xfsaild freezeable again

Hendik has reported suspend failures due to xfsaild blocking the freezer
to settle down.

The issue has been there for quite some time but it has been made
visible by only by 24ba16bb3d49 ("xfs: clear PF_NOFREEZE for xfsaild
kthread") because the suspend started seeing xfsaild.

The above commit has missed that the !xfs_ail_min branch might call
schedule with TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE without calling try_to_freeze so the pm
suspend would wake up the kernel thread over and over again without any
progress. What we want here is to use freezable_schedule instead to hide
the thread from the suspend.

While we are here also change schedule_timeout to freezable variant to
prevent from spurious wakeups by suspend.

[dchinner: re-add set_freezeable call so the freezer will account properly
 for this kthread. ]
