If we are doing a self-checkpoint, we will not be frozen and the
get_freezer_task() will return NULL. If we have children, then
may_checkpoint_task() will attempt to make sure that they are in the
same cgroup as the freezer task, which will attempt to lock a NULL
task pointer (and thus go boom).
This patch just inserts a check before in_same_cgroup_freezer() call
to make sure we have a freezer task. The existing check is aimed to
determine if a task is not frozen alongside the root, so this addition
catches the case where it is impossible.
