Subject: [PATCH 20/27] gfs2: Convert to new freezing mechanism

We update gfs2_page_mkwrite() to use new freeze protection and the transaction
code to use freeze protection while the transaction is running. That is needed
to stop iput() of unlinked file from modifying the filesystem. The rest is
handled by the generic code.
