Hi,

I tested it on v4.1-rc3 and next-20150508.

Task was moved to frozen cgroup:
-----
root@localhost:/sys/fs/cgroup/freezer/frozen# grep . *
cgroup.clone_children:0
cgroup.procs:2750
freezer.parent_freezing:0
freezer.self_freezing:1
freezer.state:FROZEN
notify_on_release:0
tasks:2750
tasks:2773
-----

Unfortunately during system resume the process was woken up. The "if
(frozen(p))" check was true. Is it expected behaviour?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
