Replace 'schedule(); try_to_freeze();' with a call to freezable_schedule(). Tasks calling freezable_schedule() set the PF_FREEZER_SKIP flag before calling schedule(). Unlike tasks calling schedule(); try_to_freeze() tasks calling freezable_schedule() are not awaken by try_to_freeze_tasks(). Instead they call try_to_freeze() when they wake up if the freeze is still underway. It is not a problem since sleeping tasks can't do anything which isn't allowed for a frozen task while sleeping. The result is a potential performance gain during freeze, since less tasks have to be awaken. For instance on a bare Debian vm running a 4.19 stable kernel, the number of tasks skipped in freeze_task() went up from 12 without the patch to 32 with the patch (out of 448), an increase of > x2.5.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
