Yes,

Yes. Because we can race with unfreeze after leave_frozen().

I think this is fine... Yes, JOBCTL_TRAP_FREEZE can be already set when we take
siglock, but I don't think we need to recheck this flag.

The only important thing (afaics) is that CGRP_FREEZE is stable under css_set_lock,
so we can't wrongly set TRAP_FREEZE.
