I have modified to set the suitable error number (EOPNOTSUPP)
in case the filesystem doesn't support the freeze feature.
This was pointed out by Andreas Dilger.
The ioctls for the generic freeze feature are below.
o Freeze the filesystem
int ioctl(int fd, int FIFREEZE, arg)
fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
FIFREEZE: request code for the freeze
arg: Ignored
Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
o Unfreeze the filesystem
int ioctl(int fd, int FITHAW, arg)
fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
FITHAW: request code for unfreeze
arg: Ignored
Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1

The BD_FREEZE_OP flag in the block_device already prevents multiple
freezes for a singe block device, so there is no need for this
additional check and the get_super_without_lock helper.
> down(&bdev->bd_mount_sem);
And with that flag bd_mount_sem is also obsolete for preventing the
multiple freeze operations. We still need investigate what
synchronization we need vs unmount which also takes bd_mount_sem without
every having document what it exactly protects.

I think the above check is needed because BD_FREEZE_OP is used to
guarantee that the following two operations are done atomically.
1. Check if the filesystem has already been frozen.
(sb->s_frozen != SB_UNFROZEN)
2. Do the filesystem specific freeze operation
(write_super_lockfs)
The freeze operation can be done again for the frozen filesystem
unless the filesystem is checked.
And if write_super_lockfs doesn't consider that the filesystem
has already been frozen, a problem might occur.

bd_mount_sem is needed because it is used to guarantee that the freeze
operation never run while mounting (get_sb_bdev()).

And s_umount (semaphore) is acquired in get_user() (called by freeze_bdev())
to guarantee that unmount never run while the filesystem is frozen.
