If you have copyright, add GPL.

Same here.

Function headers are somehow non-traditional.

+       struct freezer *freezer;
+
+       if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
+               return ERR_PTR(-EPERM);
+
+       freezer = kzalloc(sizeof(struct freezer), GFP_KERNEL);
+       if (!freezer)
+               return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
+
+       spin_lock_init(&freezer->lock);
+       freezer->state = STATE_RUNNING;
+       return  &freezer->css;
+}

One space too many after "return" :-).

Hmm, returning pointer inside struct freezer is rather ugly, right?
Could you just pass struct freezer around?
