Grr. Oleg's review of remove-the-likelypid-check-in-copy-process showed it to be questionable (and it was just an optimization) so we can get rid of that one easily. Although all it did that was really questionable was add the idle process to the global process list and bump a process count when we forked the idle process. Not dramatically dangerous things. > use-task_pgrp-task_session-in-copy_process.patch As I recall that patch was pretty trivial, and shouldn't have anything to do with the freezer. The process freezer doesn't care about pids does it?
