hmm, a task being frozen does not mean that its freezer cgroup is 
frozen. So the extra check seems valid but looking at the comment :

        /*
         * The call to cgroup_lock() in the freezer.state write method prevents
         * a write to that file racing against an attach, and hence the
         * can_attach() result will remain valid until the attach completes.
         */
        static int freezer_can_attach(struct cgroup_subsys *ss,

how do we know that the task_freezer(task), which is not protected by
the cgroup_lock(), is not going to change its state to CGROUP_FROZEN 
it looks racy.
