I think it's a bit overdone and we have cases where we test for
FREEZING regardless of FROZEN and cases where test for FREEZING &&
!FROZEN. We can have, say, CGROUP_FREZING() and then
CGROUP_FREEZING_BUT_NOT_FROZEN(), but it feels more like obfuscation
than anything else.

We can define CGROUP_THAWED to be zero. I'd rather keep it explicitly
zero tho. freezer state is mask of freezing and frozen flags and no
flag set means thawed.

Thanks.
