Rafael J. Wysocki reported weird, multi-seconds delays during
suspend/resume and bisected it back to:

      softlockup: automatically detect hung TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks

fix it:

 - restore the old wakeup mechanism
 - fix break usage in do_each_thread() { } while_each_thread().
 - fix the hotplug switch stmt, a fall-through case was broken.
