This is not true or at least it is misworded. The enter_freeze() function
is expected to return from the state with IRQs disabled at CPU level, or
put it differently it must not re-enable IRQs while executing since the
tick is frozen.

Cool. So if the problem is FIQs, you don't disabled them on entry
which means you enter the "frozen" state with FIQs enabled and tick frozen,
unless I am missing something.

The question here is: are we allowed to enable FIQs before returning
from an enter_freeze() call (and to enter it with FIQs enabled) ?

If we are not your code here certainly does not solve the issue, since
it does _not_ disable FIQs upon enter_freeze call anyway.
