As for the current usage of PF_FROZEN... David, it seems that
oom_scan_process_thread()->__thaw_task() is dead? Probably this
was fine before, when __thaw_task() cleared the "need to freeze"
condition, iirc it was PF_FROZEN.
But today __thaw_task() can't help, no? the task will simply
schedule() in D state again.
Oleg.
