cgroup_freezer: cgroup_freezing: Check if not frozen 

commit cff5f49d43 upstream.

__thaw_task() was recently updated to warn if the task being thawed was
part of a freezer cgroup that is still currently freezing:

	void __thaw_task(struct task_struct *p)
	{
	...
		if (WARN_ON_ONCE(freezing(p)))
			goto unlock;

This has exposed a bug in cgroup1 freezing where when CGROUP_FROZEN is
asserted, the CGROUP_FREEZING bits are not also cleared at the same
time. Meaning, when a cgroup is marked FROZEN it continues to be marked
FREEZING as well. This causes the WARNING to trigger, because
cgroup_freezing() thinks the cgroup is still freezing.

There are two ways to fix this:

1. Whenever FROZEN is set, clear FREEZING for the cgroup and all
children cgroups.
2. Update cgroup_freezing() to also verify that FROZEN is not set.

This patch implements option (2), since it's smaller and more
straightforward.
