I'm trying to understand when this happens.
You migrate a process with two threads while one of them exits?

This should be properly synchronized with cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem, so I
don't understand where does the [cgroup_free] between 3. and 4. come
from.

Do you have a reproducer for this?

Thanks,
Michal
