I'd say try_to_freeze() belongs close to the other signal check,
i.e. before schedule?

Same here?

And here?

I'm not comfortable with this one. Can the task be killable, but still
hold some _other_ mutex? (and then release it only if it actually gets
the signal?)

Same here. I can't see why we could not be holding mutexes.

Swap?
