Ok. Should the frozen transitions be handled the same way than the
corresponding non frozen transitions? If yes and if it doesn't matter
to mask action with ~CPU_TASKS_FROZEN in arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c and
drivers/xen/events/events_fifo.c like Juergen sugessts, I could change
the patch by masking action.
