This still strikes me as the wrong way to go about freezing for c/r.
You never explained why you had to do it this way. Why can't you inject
the parasite thread, move that thread out of the cgroup-to-be-frozen,
then freeze?

As best I can tell your reply last time only fleshed out the details
of *how* you would like it to work, not *why it needs to* work that way:
