ho hum, I could live with that ;)
Would it make sense to turn it into something more general? Instead of "tasks_frozen/processes_are_frozen()", present it as "oom_killer_disabled/oom_killer_is_disabled()"?
That would invite other subsystems to use it, if they want to. Which might well be a bad thing on their behalf, hard to say..
