But this change has no effect?

Firstly, this last __schedule() should not return, note the BUG() we have.

Secondly, this zombie is already PF_NOFREEZE, freeze_task() will return
false anyway.

Thanks for pointing that out.
Indeed, I’ve noticed that in the current position the code has no effect.
If we move this code to a more appropriate place, it should improve both safety and usefulness compared to the previous implementation.
