Yes, cgroup_enter_frozen() alone is wrong, we have already discussed this
a bit... see https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190508152536.GA17058@redhat.com/

Probably we add leave_frozen(true) after freezable_schedule() for now, then
think try to make something better...

But I am not sure I 100% understand whats going on in this case, could you
try the patch below? (Just in case, of course it is wrong).

Oleg.
